Local boy Ashwin was the pick of the Indian bowlers, while Jadeja returned 3-58.
The visitors did show some resilience in the second innings to reach 158 for four at the close of Day 3 on Saturday, before bad light resulted in early Stumps.
Bangladesh have never won chasing a score of 400 runs or more in a Test match in 20 previous instances, where only one ended in a draw. Moreover, India have never lost a Test match after setting a target of 500 runs or more, recording 22 wins in 56 such matches, while 28 ended in a draw. The odds are immensely stacked in favour of India, who also have never lost a Test match against Bangladesh in history.
Recap of Day 3
Rishabh Pant notched up an emotional sixth Test century, Shubman Gill continued his sublime form at No. 3 since turning things around in Vizag earlier this year, and the pair stitched a valiant 167-run stand for the fourth wicket, as India, overnight 81/3, took an aggressive call to declare their second innings at 287 for 4 for an overall lead of 514.
With the pitch condition conducive for batters amid no help for pace or spin, Pant and Gill made the most of it to put on a counter-attacking show, especially against the spinners. While the India No. 3 shimmied down the track to take on Mehidy Hasan Miraz, the left-hander fancied his chances against Shakib Al Hasan, who has yet to find his rhythm in the match.
Pant, playing his first Test match since that horrific car accident in December 2022, eventually notched up his sixth Test century and matched MS Dhoni's Test record at his adopted home ground. Gill's struggles, on the other hand, have been more mental than physical in nature, but he, too, made it to his triple-figure score. Even until the start of this year, there were criticisms of his decision to bat at No. 3 for India, having gone without a fifty in 12 straight innings since assuming the new role. But his fate changed in the England home series when he notched up a century in Visakhapatnam and Dharamsala.
In response to the mammoth target, Zakir Hasan and Shadman Islam made a promising start with a 62-run stand before Jasprit Bumrah and Ashwin changed the momentum with an array of tight overs post Tea. Zakir edged one to Yashasvi Jaiswal in an ambitious attempt against the pacer, as Ashwin continued the hard work, which included getting hit for boundaries more often. But he had his first wicket in a surprising fashion when he dismissed Shadman, with Gill taking a low catch at short midwicket, before he got rid of Mominul Haque and Mushfiqur Rahim, both of whom never looked at home.
Bangladesh will resume their innings at 158 for four with captain Najmul Hossain Shanto (51) and Shakib (5) unbeaten.

"Every time I play in Chennai, it's an amazing feeling for me. I have watched a lot of Test cricket and international cricket sitting in those stands. I am probably enjoying my play because what I am doing. It was an opportunity to fight and dig in deep," he said.
He slammed a brilliant century in the first innings which he called a special knock and thanked Ravindra Jadeja for helping him during their partnership.
"I kept it simple, have to thank Jadeja who helped me. Quite a special knock, didn't sink in till day two," he added.

"I make a living by bowling. Bowling comes first. Batting is something that comes naturally. Over the last few years, I have tried to compartmentalize," he concluded.
India vs Bangladesh 1st Test, Day 4: Rohit Sharma elated with Rishabh Pant's comeback ton
Team India captain Rohit Sharma was elated by the result, which the team wanted despite not playing red-ball cricket for five months.
"It was a great result looking at what lies ahead for us. We are playing after a long time, but you are never out of cricket. We came here a week before, we wanted the result we wanted," Rohit said after the 280-run win in Chennai.
The Indian skipper also talked about Rishabh Pant instant impact on his comeback with a fine century in the second innings.
"He's been through some really tough times. The way he has managed himself was superb to watch. He came back in the IPL, followed by a successful World Cup and this is a format he loves the most. It was about giving him the game time. Credit to him, he had an impact straightaway. No matter what the conditions are, we want to build the team around that. In the last few years, wherever we have played, we have managed to have that in the armoury," he said.
Rohit said that the batters and bowlers showed a lot of patience which was required on the red soil.
"You have to give credit to the guys, they want to put their hand up. The red soil pitch always has something to offer. You need to have a little bit of patience as well. This was a pitch where we had to show a lot of patience. We were patient enough with the bat and with the ball as well to put them under pressure," he added.
The Indian captain further talked about the match-winning performance by Ravichandran Ashwin who claimed a six-fer in second innings and scored a century in first.
"He's always there for us with the ball and bat. Every time we see him, it's always beautiful. He's never out of the game. He had some fun bating in the TNPL," he concluded.

Chasing a mammoth 515 victory target, Bangladesh were all out for 234, with only skipper Najmul (82) putting up some fightback.
The visiting captain also talked about his own batting after the defeat.
“As a batter, I always try to contribute. I enjoy my batting. Just try to bat as long as possible without thinking about the result, that's what we wanted to do,” he concluded.
