Record No.1- Maximum no.of teams participated in the quiz . A total of 314 teams.
Record No.2 – First time in the history of TC , 2 prelims had to be conducted. Each prelim consisted of 165 teams.
Record No. 3 – Maximum Number of Institute, 78 in all total.. anyway this is a normal number of team participating form Pune ( as per the trend from last 3 years), and we all know how Pune boost of being a Educational city.
Record No. 4 - First time in the history of any Tata quiz, a team scored 20/20 in the prelims.
Anyway for me the most amazing thing was a team from Gorakpur, who qualified for a wild card. Final saw good battle between two IIM team and a IIT, Amity Bio tech team and Lucknow's very own BBD.
Giri’s concluding words best captured the magnitude of quizzing cult in lucknow.
“ Today, its not IIML who has won. Its Lucknow who has won”. How often you see venue like Taj be such a place, with no empty space at the venue and also at the parking lot.
Next time they need to move at a bigger place.
Great work done by Giri ( & his Graycaps) Tata's esp TCS...

There was a certain BBDNITM too present on the stage. I admit we didn't perform too well in the last round but hey! We did have a rocking prelim with 18 outta 20 correct answers. Nidhi, your not mentioning my team breaks my heart. IIM's and IIT's are not the end of the educational domain in India.
