June 04, 2025

Away from the pitched battle between current and former world champions in the Norwegian city of Stavanger — which has India's D Gukesh sweeping the headlines — another Indian is quietly breaking barriers and raising the roof. For the first time ever, India has four active chess players in the top 10 of the live ratings — Gukesh — world No. 4 (Elo 2782.3) Arjun Erigaisi — world No. 5 (Elo 2772.6) R Praggnanandhaa — world No. 7 (Elo 2765.9) and Aravindh Chithambaram — world No. 10 (Elo 2753.5).
