Himanshu Dinesh Jain (born 6 September 1991) is an Indian former professional snooker player.[1]

Jain turned professional as one of the two qualifiers from the second Asia & Oceania event of the 2022 Q School, earning a two-year tour card for the 2022–23 and 2023–24 snooker seasons.[2] He became the fifth Indian to make an entry into the professional circuit and the first to do so via qualification rather than their Asian or World Championship ranking.[3]
