Abu Dhabi, which hosts the Formula 1 season finale on November 29, will warm-up with the Indian series for the very first time.
The series then travels to the other Formula 1 destination in the Gulf -- the Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) from November 18-20.
The BIC has been a regular feature on the calendar ever since the series went international in 2013-2014. The MRF Challenge will be a support race to a round of the World Endurance Championship as a round each of GP2 and GP3 also takes place at the track from November 19-21.
The finale takes place in Chennai as usual from January 29-31, 2016.
The past champions of the single-make series have been Conor Daly (2012-13), Rupert Svendsen-Cook (2013-2014) and Toby Sowery (2014-15).
The car is built around a Dallara chassis and is powered by a 2.0 litre 210 BHP Renault Sport Engine and Hewland 6-Speed sequential gearbox.
