Sudoku 101: Encaged 4 Sudoku
Sudoku GP Round 4 has started and it features a new variant - Encaged 4 Sudoku. Posting a practice sudoku.
Given it is one of the mid-pointers in the round I expect the contest sudoku to be easier than this one. Nonetheless, I hope you enjoy solving this sudoku.
Rules: Apply Classic Sudoku rules. Additionally, the digit 4 may only be orthogonally adjacent to odd numbers.

Sudoku 100: Milestone Sudoku Contest
It's time for the first contest of the blog! You must solve the sudoku and mail an image of the solution to hemantkr97@gmail.com. The first 3 participants to share the correct solution will win Amazon Gift Vouchers! Let's Go!
Rules: Classic Sudoku rules apply. Additionally, some of the boxes have a few decorations. The decorations in each box have been taken from a sudoku posted on the blog earlier (different sudokus for different boxes). The decorations of all forms (line, circle, square, shading, etc.) have been converted to shading. If a box contains decorations, all digits in that box will be exactly same as the sudoku from which the decorations have been taken. It is a part of solving to determine the sudokus from which the decorations have been taken.

Sudoku 98: Edge Difference Sudoku
This Sunday at the Delhi Sudoku & Puzzle Meet up, we solved some sudokus from Japan's World Sudoku Championship selection contest. Out of all the sudokus we solved, I liked the Edge Difference Sudoku the most. This was the first time I was solving this variant. On my way back, I got an idea for an Edge Difference Sudoku I could create. And here it is! Do solve and let me know how you find the sudoku :)
Btw! Something lovely is coming up for the 100th Sudoku (along with chances to win prizes)! Stay tuned!
Rules: Place a digit from 1 to 9 in each empty cell so that each digit appears exactly once in each row, column and 3x3 outlined box. Digits placed outside the grid represent the difference between the first and the last digits in that row or column.
