After being actively involved with the sport for close to six decades, he passed away at the age of 93, leaving behind two sons, one daughter, seven grandchildren, and four great grandchildren.
Madras Motor Sports Club president Ajit Thomas said, "In Indu Chandhok's demise, the MMSC and Indian motorsports have lost a giant and an institutional figure. He was instrumental in providing definitive direction to motorsports in India and we are now enjoying the fruits of his untiring efforts. He also shaped MMSC to what it is today. We deeply mourn his passing away and offer condolences to his family."
