The 29-year-old from Punjab failed two of her three snatch attempts to fall out of medal contention early on in a 10-lifter field.
Kaur attempted just one lift in the clean and jerk, finishing with a total that was a whopping 69kg less than that of gold medallist Song Kuk-hyang of North Korea.
Two-time world champions Song, who was in her own league lifted 273kg (121kg+152kg), smashing the world records in the snatch, clean and jerk and total en route to her gold-medal finish.
Chinese Taipei's Wen-huei Chen clinched the silver with an effort of 232kg (106kg+126kg), while Bahrain's Ingrid Grueso's 229kg (101kg+128kg) fetched her the bronze.
India thus finished with one medal in weightlifting, a silver won by star lifter Mirabai Chanu in the women's 49kg event.
