End of India's campaign**

All the top paddlers from India are participating in the WTT Singapore Smash. None of the Indian paddlers made it to the main draw through the qualifiers. Manav Thakkar put up a great show against WR 69 leading (2-0), but couldn't capture key moments in the final moments to lose the match (2-3) in the second qualifying round. 

Manika Batra received a bye in both the doubles section. The top Indian women’s singles had a good run at the WTT Star Contender, India and will look to carry forward the momentum.
