Chamundeswaranath was elected as the chairman of the Andhra Cricket Association (ACA) selection committee in 2007. He was also the secretary of ACA, and selector of Andhra under-19 and women's teams. He worked as the Indian team manager for the 2009 ICC World Twenty20 but was suspended at the conclusion of the tournament in June 2009 for allegedly harassing Andhra women cricketers for sexual favors. In August 2009, ACA sacked him after allegations of corruption in team selection. Andhra woman cricketer Durga Bhavani, who committed suicide in 2015, had filed a complaint against Chamundeswaranath alleging sexual harassment in 2009 before withdrawing the complaint and retiring from cricket.
In July 2013, Chamundeswaranath became a co-owner of the Indian Badminton League franchise Mumbai Masters, in partnership with former India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar and actor Akkineni Nagarjuna.
