This is the third and final World Cup stage for Shotgun before the athletes move on to the Shotgun World Championships to be held in August in Moscow.
Olympian Mairaj Ahmad Khan, India's only ever World Cup stage medallist in Skeet and India's best bet in the 94-strong field, shot a score of 120 out of 125 to end in 22nd spot.
Mairaj was well placed to qualify for the six-man Final round after the fourth series of 25 targets, with a score of 98 out of a possible 100. But three misses in the fifth and final series saw him slide down dramatically in a tough field where three of the six qualifiers made it with a high-score of 122.
Mairaj improved upon his first World Cup Stage score in New Delhi by one point but will have to wait till the World Championships now to qualify for his home World Cup Finals in October.
Youngster Angad Bajwa shot 118, to match his score from the second World Cup stage in Acapulco, to finish in 31st place. Sheeraz Sheikh, the third Indian in the fray, shot 109 to finish in 77th place.
