Pavitra started the rush of golds for India by defeating Nilawan Techasuep of Thailand 5-0 to secure the 60 kilogram women's title.

Shyam Kumar then followed that up by claiming the men's 49kg gold with a 4-1 win over Mario Blasius of host country Indonesia.

Ashish then secured India's fifth boxing gold of the day thanks to his victory over home athlete Sugar Rey Ocana in the men's 64kg category.

The j-male pencak silat competition was won by Indonesia's Eko Febrianto, who beat Malaysian Mohd Khaizul bin Yaacob in the final to clinch gold.
