[what is this?]

International Master with one GM norm (2012).

In 2012, 16 year-old student G. Akash, of Jawahar Higher Secondary School in Chennai (1), won the National Premier Championship of India (doubling as Zonal 3.7 (India)) to qualify for the World Cup (2013). This win earned him his IM title and a GM norm. At the World Cup, he met Fabiano Caruana in the first round, losing the first game and drawing the second, thereby exiting the contest.

May-03-14		perfidious: Any loss to this player shall go against one's Akashic Record. Caruana may count himself one of the fortunate not to have gone down before Mr Akash.

Sep-10-15		BIDMONFA: Akash G AKASH, G. http://www.bidmonfa.com/akash_g.htm _

Sep-25-15		jith1207: <SamAtoms1980> In India, it's quite common to have a single Name, followed by Initial and not having a surname or father's name or family name. Naming convention differs a lot from Western World and many Indians would have more than two names, none of these referring to family or surname. Sri Lankans for example normally have more than 4 names and some of them abbreviated to Initials. In this case, G refers to Akash's Dad's first letter, thus converted to an Initial which is normal in his native.
