Bunker Busters defeated Dasos by Mahi 4½–3½, played out over two sessions — a morning round on the front nine and an afternoon round on the back nine — across singles and doubles match-play.

The defending champions made a flying start, sweeping all four morning matches to lead 4–0 at the turn. Nirvair Nair (3&2) and S Murali (5&4) delivered in the singles, while the doubles pairings of Samu Manger & Shailendra Thapliyal (2 up) and Rakhi Sinha & Pratap Singh Ranawat (4&3) completed a perfect front nine.

Dasos by Mahi, however, refused to fold. Roared on through the back nine, they won three of the four afternoon matches — Shrey Reddy, Prasad Rao K, and the pairing of Nethra Reddy & Vijay Kumar Reddy each edging tight 1-up wins — with the final match halved. The fightback brought them to within a single point, but Bunker Busters’ commanding morning proved decisive, sealing the title 4½–3½.
