Out of 105 games in this tournament, 84 have been completed. AICCF Champion, P.B.Dhanish leads with a perfect 10/10 score. Dr. Chatterjee has completed all his games with a final tally of 12/14. Neelakantan and Dabholkar are close behind in terms of the performance figure; however Neelakantan has lost only 1 game. It would appear that P.B.Dhanish is likely to retain the Championship However it is very difficult to predict who would take the second place amongst Neelakantan, Dr. Chatterjee, Dabholkar, K.L.Gala and Prabhanandan.
Note that the table includes the results of 5 games that were completed after 31-12-07 and have not been considered for rating purposes in the current period.
The AICCF Management Committee has taken strong action against S.K.Somani. In the past, he was always given the benefit of doubt and even an extraordinary cessation was granted to him in 1507. However, in view of his repeated irregularity in corresponding with his opponents he is deemed to have lost all his pending games in 1507. The full announcement is on p. 66
