Ownership

The team is owned by Business house The Wave Group after the company bought the franchise on 17 September 2012.[3] The group is involved in many businesses including sugar manufacturing, distilleries, paper manufacturing, real estate and multiplexes and retail management.[3]

The Chadha Group has been integrated by his three sons — Late Gurdeep Singh Chadha, Late Hardeep Singh Chadha, Rajinder Singh Chadha, and grandson Manpreet Singh Chadha (Monty Chadha).[4] Starting with a sugar crusher in the state of Uttar Pradesh, the Group has progressively cast its footprint on to diverse business industries.
