Left out or changed by Shishya: Year = first year of the term printed in brackets. The list goes back to 1891 (pre-1947 holders included as the page lists them). SIR FREDERIC GAUNTLETT appears twice (1912-1914 and 1918-1929); kept once with his first year 1912 (his 1918 term is a second row the page prints, dropped to keep keys unique). The 'Sir.' and ALL-CAPS name styles are kept as printed. The sitting CAG Shri K Sanjay Murthy was read from https://cag.gov.in/en/page-cag-of-india (last updated 05/12/2024): 'sworn in ... on 21st November 2024'. Shishya kept only holders from 1948 (pre-independence Auditors General left out, so the question's title 'Comptroller and Auditor General' is right for every row).

Names and spellings are kept as the source prints them. Spotted a change on the official page? The list is re-read from the source, never from other sites.
