For Indian fans, the sight of Anand sharing the board with players he once mentored underlines how rapidly the country's chess ecosystem has matured. The women's section continues Tata Steel Chess India's commitment to parity and depth. With defending champions Aleksandra Goryachkina and Kateryna Lagno returning, and a strong Indian presence led by Divya Deshmukh and R. Vaishali, the competition promises to be fiercely contested. Equal prize money and identical formats underline the tournament's progressive structure and its role in strengthening women's chess in India.
