Cholamandalam Investment and Finance Company Limited has issued a clarification regarding a news item published on Moneycontrol.com on February 26, 2026, which speculated about the exit of Executive Chairman Mr. Vellayan Subbiah as part of a family settlement.

The company, through a statement received from Mr. Vellayan Subbiah's office, has categorically stated that the speculation is factually incorrect and entirely baseless. It was confirmed that Mr. Vellayan Subbiah continues in his role as the Executive Chairman of Cholamandalam Investment and Finance Company, with his duly approved appointment valid for a five-year term from April 1, 2025, to March 31, 2030.

Furthermore, the company confirmed that there has been no change in the management control structure or ownership of the Group's businesses. The existing management structure, in place for several years, remains unchanged, with Vellayan Subbiah and M A M Arunachalam continuing to oversee key entities including Tube Investments of India, Cholamandalam Investment and Finance Company, and CG Power and Industrial Solutions, along with their respective subsidiaries.

The Group reiterated its commitment to the continuity and stability of its governance and management, emphasizing transparency.
