General Anil Chauhan
General N.S. Raja Subramani took over as India’s third Chief of Defence Staff in May 2026, succeeding General Anil Chauhan, the second CDS (from September 2022).
The CDS post was created in 2019; General Bipin Rawat was the first CDS until his death in December 2021.
General Upendra Dwivedi and General Manoj Pande have served as Chiefs of the Army Staff, not as Chief of Defence Staff.
Hence, the answer is General Anil Chauhan.
