Chandigarh Club

What Chandigarh Club does

Chandigarh Club is a private members club incorporated as Chandigarh Club Limited, established in April 1958 and operating from a single site at Uttar Marg, Sector 1, Chandigarh, India. The club offers a comprehensive suite of recreational, sports, dining, and entertainment services: 21 tennis courts (grass, clay, synthetic) with floodlights, swimming pools with Jacuzzi, squash and billiards halls, multicuisine restaurants, bar, coffee shop, pool-side café, and multi-purpose venues for private events. Professional tennis and squash academies run year-round, and a library with over 5,000 books complements card and bridge rooms. Reciprocal affiliations with Charlotte City Club (USA), India Club (Dubai), Royal Selangor Club (Malaysia), Chittagong Club (Bangladesh), and domestic Indian elite clubs extend the value proposition geographically.

The business model is a hybrid membership-club revenue engine. Recurring subscription-style membership fees are the primary anchor, layered with usage-based sports fees (tennis, swimming, billiards, squash, turf soccer), subscription-style recreation charges (card room, bridge room), one-time venue rentals for events (Rs. 2,500 to Rs. 50,000 depending on hall and pax), and transaction-based revenue from food and beverage across multiple outlets. Acquisition is gated through a formal application requiring proposer signatures, identity and residence proof, and management approval. Members access facilities via smart cards and a mobile app launched for Android/iOS that supports e-payment, reservations, and account management. The club is ISO 9001:2008 certified and governed by an elected executive committee led by President Sh. Sunil Khanna. There is no public listing, no funding rounds, and no parent company.
