The tournament co-sanctioned by the Challenge Tour and the TATA Steel PGTI, carried a prize purse of US$ 300,000 and constituted the second event in the two-week Indian swing of the Challenge Tour.
The event scheduled to be played at the historic RCGC in Kolkata from March 21 24, 2024, marked the return of an international event to Kolkata and the RCGC after a long gap of 25 years.
The Indian contingent was led by legends Arjun Atwal and SSP Chawrasia, both playing at their home course. Interestingly, Arjun Atwal, a PGA Tour and three-time DP World Tour winner, won the last international event to be staged at RCGC, the 1999 Indian Open. Olympian SSP Chawrasia, a four-time DP World Tour winner, was the joint runner-up at the 1999 Indian Open.
