This will be 26-year-old Berdych's second visit to the tournament, while Tipsarevic will open his new season at the Chennai Open for the fifth successive year.
"We are pleased to announce the participation of two top-10 players. Tomas Berdych had a huge fan following in India after he reached the semifinals in 2011. He has had a great year thus far and we are sure he will continue his winning streak in Chennai," President of Tamil Nadu Tennis Association, M A Alagappan said.
"Tipsarevic is a regular to Chennai and loves to play here. He has been doing well in 2012 and I am sure his presence will ensure that fans will get to see some fantastic games being played during the tournament. We would like to take this opportunity to welcome him to India," he added.
Berdych, who started 2012 with a win in the Hopman Cup for the Czech Republic with compatriot Petra Kvitova, continued his top form throughout the year.
He reached his career best at the US Open Championships where he stalled the progress of Roger Federer to enter the quarter-finals.
In September, Berdych led the Czech team to victory to set-up a face-off against Spain in the Davis Cup final which would be held later this year. (MORE)
