The Indian veteran finished the week at two-over 290 and in tied 33rd place.
James Morrison finished with a bogey free 69 and won by a handy four shots. He finished at 10-under 278 and was a clear winner even as defending champion Miguel Angel Jimenez made a valiant attempt with a final round 67 that saw him finish in a four-way tie for second.
Others tied for second included Edouard Espana (69), Francesco Molinari (71) and David Howell (73). The foursome was at six-under 282.
Overnight leader, Morrison was winning his second European Tour title and the first since Madeira Island Open in 2010.
Jimenez, who had a stunning hole in one on first day, started the final day way back in tied 13th and he had five birdies and an eagle and three bogeys.
Jeev began with a bogey but made up with a birdie on second and then again had a bogey on sixth only to make amends with a birdie on seventh. A birdie on 12th was followed by bogey on 13th as he ended with an even par 72.
Jeev is now slated to play the BMW PGA Championships next week and the field will also have Shiv Kapur and SSP Chawrasia.
