The Battle of Chingleput was a short siege in early 1752, during the Second Carnatic War. About 700 East India Company recruits and sepoys under the command of Robert Clive captured the fortress of Chingleput, near Madras, defended by a French East India Company garrison of about 40 Europeans and 500 troops.
