In the semi-finals Abhinn ousted teammate B Kiran Kumar in straight games 15-5, 15-7. A well fought tussle saw Kiran Kumar put on a brave fight giving nothing away. However the top seeded Abhinsham has proved his ranking in the tournament so far.

In the other semi-final Vijay Lancy of Maharashtra won in identical fashion in two straight games over compatriot Nimesh Goyal 15-9, 15-2. After winning the first set with a little effort the second was easy going for him. His accurate baseline serves and smashes were too good for Nimesh to handle. Nimesh conceded with only two points to his credit.

In the women's section top seeded Manjusha Kanwar of Maharashtra will lock horns with second seed PVV Laxmi of Andhra Pradesh for the women's title.

Manjusha Kanwar downed Nirmala Kotnis 11-5, 11-6 in a 25 minute long encounter. PVV Laxmi's victory over Archana Deodhar was rather effortless, the former winning in straight games 11-2, 11-2.
