In the men’s 100m T47 event at the Asian Para Games 2026, India claimed another 1-2, as Dilip Gavit and Mohammed Basil Morssinganakath claimed gold and silver medals, respectively.
The final event was organised with T46 and T47 athletes, while both classifications are for athletes with upper-limb impairments, such as amputations or limb deficiencies. Dilip is the T46 athlete, and Basil is the T47 athlete.
Dilip completed the race in 10.69 seconds to secure the gold, as the Commonwealth Games 2026 gold medalist claimed his second Asian Para Games gold. In the 2022 edition of the Asian event, he claimed a gold medal in the 400m T47 event. Basil finished the race in 10.72 seconds, setting a new games record for the T47 classification, and clinched the silver medal.
Chinese Shi Kangjun (10.80) and Japanese Kakeru Ishida (10.87), both T46 athletes, were close to finishing, as the Chinese just managed to beat the hosts for the bronze medal battle with his season-best finish.
Uzbek Omadbek Khasanov (11.05) finished in fifth place, while all the next three competitors, Juft Nader from Iraq (11.19), Arman Dino from the Philippines (11.34), and Mohammadu Safran from Sri Lanka (11.35), managed their respective personal best finishes.
