Ankit, 23, also smashed the existing national record with his best effort of 8.19m in men's long jump in the same event in Almaty to ensure his passage to Rio Games. The earlier national record of 8.09m was in the name of Kumaravel Prem Kumar set in New Delhi in August 2013.
The qualification standard for the Olympics in men's long jump is 8.15 metres.
Haryana athlete Ankit had also won gold in the South Asian Games earlier this year and National Games last year.

The 21-year-old clocked 45.40secs, the exact qualification timing, to book the Olympics ticket.
The Kerala athlete shattered his own national record of 45.44secs, which he set on Friday on the first day of the same competition.
Rajiv Arokia, whose national record of 45.47secs Anas broke on Saturday, finished second with a timing of 45.60secs.
Anas had won a silver in the Federation Cup National Athletics Championships in April in New Delhi with a timing of 45.74secs.
