RESULTS – MahaQuizzer 2024

A total of 252 quizzers attempted MahaQuizzer this year.

The winner, for a barely believable fifth time, is Vinoo Sanjay from Mumbai. Vinoo reclaims his title with a score of 80 points out of 150.

Two quizzers tied for 77, but in the end, youth beat out experience. Ravi Mundoli (Chennai) pips ahead of Preetham Upadhya (Bengaluru) on stars. The defending champion, Jayakanthan, finishes fourth with 76 points.

A new entrant into the top ten is also comfortably its youngest. Calvin Christ finishes with 70 points in sixth place. He will celebrate it with a bottle of champagne when he is old enough to.

Two other former MQ champions, Dr Arul Mani and Shouvik Guha (Kolkata), round off the top ten with 65 points. Another former champ, Jayashree Jaykar Mohanka (Kolkata), was the highest-scoring woman, with 59.

The top 16 automatically qualify for Mahamahaquizzer at AsKQAnce 2025.

The KQA thanks all quizzing communities and proctors who helped conduct MQ smoothly.

The Q&A can be found here.

MahaQuizzer 2024 was set by Sachin Deshpande, Santosh J Swaminathan, Sreyashi Dastidar, Sujata Sharma, and Venkataraman R.

See you in 2025!
