Despite breaking these records, the lifter failed to register a clean and jerk lift, and hence was unable to register a total lift score at the gold level Olympic qualifying event. These points are important as they will be considered in the final rankings for the Tokyo 2020 cut. 

Overall, Indian lifters put a good show, collectively bagging four golds, two silvers and a bronze.
