O evento acontece desde 1938, mas este foi o primeiro com o novo nome: "Tata Steel", um grupo industrial indiano que comprou a Corus.
Foi mantido o tradicional sistema de 3 grupos de 14 jogadores, pelo sistema round robin, em 13 rodadas.
O tempo de reflexão foi de 100 minutos para os primeiros 40 lances, 50 minutos para os 20 movimentos seguintes e, finalmente, 15 minutos para o restante da partida. Todos com um acréscimo de 30 segundos por jogada.
Este foi o primeiro torneio do Grand Slam do ano de 2011.
