Gujrathi will meet world's top junior Alireza Firouzja in the fifth round later on Sunday.
The other Indian in the 10-player field, P Harikrishna, held Sam Shankland of the US to a draw and will battle it out against Russian Nikita Vitiugov. He had lost to Firouzja in round three.
Gujrathi, who is the second-ranked Indian chess player behind Viswanathan Anand, had to share the honours with Grandelius in a 35-move game.
Harikrishna, on the other hand, went for a Sozine attack against Shankland, but had to sign for peace after 48 moves.
