All India Grand Prix Chess: The seventh seed Sanjeev Mishra defeated overnight co-leader Arnav Kohli for his sixth consecutive victory, propelling him to the top of the standings in the All India Grand Prix Chess Series, organised by Indian Chess School, in Mumbai on Sunday.

In the top board encounter, Mishra employed the London system but the young Arnav proved adept at effectively neutralizing Mishra's initial advantage and even gaining the upper hand in the middlegame stage.

However, a critical error on move 26 proved to be decisive as it allowed Mishra to open up the lines for his major pieces, ultimately leading to his victory on move 37.
