Mehuli's effort will, however, not be considered as a world record, as the SAG results are not recognised by the ISSF for the purpose of records. Shriyanka Sadangi took the silver (250.8), while Shreya Agrawal (227.2) clinched the bronze. Meanwhile, Indian men's and women's table tennis teams claimed gold medals after defeating Nepal and Sri Lanka in its respective finals.
