Ankita led 7-5, 2-0 against the second seed and doubles partner Sabina Sharipova of Uzbekistan, when the latter retired owing to an injury.
Thus, Ankita could not partner Sabina for the doubles quarterfinals against the fourth seeds Quirine Lemoine and Arantxa Rus of the Netherlands who went on to make the final.
In the singles semifinals, Ankita will play third seed Conny Perrin of Switzerland.
