In individual ranking Annu Raj Singh and Shweta Chaudhry qualified for the final on 4th and 5th positions ... Heena Sidhu was tied with 3 shooters for 7th place but she qualified for the final winning qualification shoot-off.

In the final Heena Sidhu scored best score of 99.2 points, which helped her to finish on 5th position ... Annu Raj Singh scored 2nd best score of 98.2 pts to win the Bronze ... Shweta Chaudhry disappointed to finished on 6th position ... Despite excellent performance in the final Heena Sidhu missed Olympic berth so we got medals but no Olympic quota.

Raj Kumari won the Gold in individual event of 50m rifle prone but this is not Olympic event so no quota in this event for Raj Kumari ... Tough luck.

India also managed the Bronze in this team event.

Parampal Singh Guron narrowly missed out on a place in the final of the men's skeet event at the Asian Shooting Championship ... Guron, who was in 13th place overnight with a score of 71/75, started the day with a perfect round of 25 to move into contention for a place in the final ...
With four quota places on offer, Guron needed to shoot another perfect round, but he crucially dropped one target to finish with a score of 120/125 ... The cut-off for the six-man final was at 121, which meant he finished 7th.
