Ravichandran Ashwin was the lone scalp for English bowlers as the Indian batsmen have put on 354 runs for the loss of seven wickets.
Ashwin missed out on a century as he was dismissed for 72 by Stokes.
Ravindra Jadeja (70) and Jayant Yadav (26) are at the crease and will resume batting post lunch.
If the Ashwin-Jadeja partnership of 97 runs for the seventh wicket frustrated the opposition team, the 53-run partnership for the ensuing one added salt to their wounds.
