The Comptroller and Auditor-General of India can be removed from office only by :

According to Article 148 of the Indian Constitution, the Comptroller and Auditor-General (CAG) of India is appointed by the President but enjoys security of tenure to ensure independence. The CAG can only be removed from office in a manner and on grounds identical to a judge of the Supreme Court. This procedure requires the President to issue a removal order only after an address by both Houses of Parliament has been presented to him in the same session [2]. The address must be supported by a special majority in each House—specifically, a majority of the total membership and a two-thirds majority of members present and voting [2]. The only constitutional grounds for such removal are 'proved misbehaviour' or 'incapacity' [1]. This rigorous process prevents arbitrary removal by the executive, safeguarding the CAG's role as a constitutional watchdog.
