The Eparchy of Chanda is an eparchy (Eastern Catholic diocese) of the East Syriac Rite Syro-Malabar Catholic Church, and a suffragan of the Syro-Malabar Archeparchy of Kalyan.

Its cathedral episcopal see is St. Thomas Cathedral, in Ballarpur, in India's Maharashtra state.

• It was created on 29 July 1968 as Apostolic Exarchate of Chanda, a pre-diocesan Eastern Catholic missionary jurisdiction, on then Latin territories, split off from its present Metropolitan, the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Nagpur, and from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Amravati.
• Promoted as Eparchy of Chanda on 26 February 1977 by the Bull Nostra Ipsorum of Pope Paul VI, promoting its Exarch to become the first Eparch (bishop).
• Lost territory on 23 June 1999 to establish the Syro-Malabar Catholic Eparchy of Adilabad (a suffragan of the Latin Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Hyderabad)
