The history and present position of the business combines controlled by members of the Nattukottai Chettiar community in southern India have not been elucidated so far. Their business combines have many aspects common to the well‐known business combines of northern India. But they possess distinct peculiarities relating to the leaders' characteristics. Through analysis of these peculiarities the present writer insists that there have been some defects in viewpoints and methodologies of the studies done so far on Indian business combines.
