The 33-year-old Arjun, who enjoyed an overnight four-shot lead, had a poor start to the day as he made triple-bogey on the par-5 second after finding the bushes and taking a penalty drop.
He birdied the third but dropped a bogey again on the fourth. Arjun then took control once again with five birdies against a lone bogey over the last 12 holes.
He landed his tee shot within four feet for birdie on the 13th and converted an 18-feet putt for his final birdie of the day on the 17th.
"I had narrowly missed out on making the top-60 on the PGTI last year that would've earned me an exemption. This win is therefore a huge morale-booster for me. I drove well, hit the irons to perfection and made most of the putts through the week. I had a poor start to the day but the turnaround came for me with the 10 feet birdie putt on the seventh," Chaudhri said.
Local favourite Abhinav was the runner-up with a total of three-under-213. Lohan's final round of 72 featured four birdies and four bogeys.
Wasim Khan (69-72-76) of Delhi secured third place with a one-over-217 total.
