The men's individual event was held between 29 July and 1 August followed by the women's individual events between 4 and 7 August at the Kasumigaseki Country Club.[78][79] In the men's event, Lahiri had a good first round shooting five under par to be ranked tied eighth. But a poor second round pushed him down the order before a brief recovery with a four under par score in the third round. He eventually finished tied 42nd after a par fourth round with an overall score of 279 (five under par).[80] Mane had the worst first round scoring four over par to be ranked last amongst the 60 participants and never recovered. Though he fared better in the next three rounds, he finished tied 50th with a combined score of six over par.[80][81]

In the women's event, Ashok had a brilliant first round scoring five under par to be ranked tied second. She retained her second place in the next two rounds with a combined score of nine under par after the third round. But in the last round, she slipped to fourth after she missed a birdie on the 17th hole and eventually shot a score of 68. She finished with a combined score of 269 (15 under par) and just outside the medal positions in fourth.[82][77] Dagar had a sub-par outing and finished tied 50th with a score of 290 (six over par).[82]

The qualification period for the sailing event commenced at the 2018 Sailing World Championships in Aarhus, Denmark where about forty percent of the total quota was awarded to the top NOCs. Six quota places were allocated at the 2018 Asian Games and 2019 Pan American Games, with 61 quotas across events distributed to the sailors at the World Championships in 2019. The final continental qualification regattas were held in 2021 to decide the remainder of the total quota.[107][108]

This was the first time India entered into multiple sailing events at a single Games.[109] Vishnu Saravanan qualified for the men's laser event for the first time with the duo of K.C. Ganapathy and Varun Thakkar competing in the men's 49er event. In the women's laser radial event, Nethra Kumanan became the first Indian woman to qualify for the sailing event at the Summer Games.[109][110]

The sailing events were held off the coast of Enoshima from 25 July to 1 August.[111] In the men's laser event, Sarvanan started well to be ranked 14th after the first round but slipped in the later rounds. He finished with 156 net points to be ranked 20th and recorded the best ever finish by an Indian sailor in the event.[110][112] In the 49er event, the Indian duo started with mediocre first few rounds before picking up in the intermediate rounds. But they slipped further in the last few rounds to be classified in 17th amongst the 20 boats in the competition.[113] In the women's laser radial event, Kumanan had a poor first round to be placed 33rd amongst the 41 competitors but recovered strongly in the next two rounds. But, the later rounds cost her dearly as she ended with 251 net points to be ranked 35th in the final classification.[114][115]
