Chettipunyam Veeravalli Rungacharlu CIE (c. August 1831 - d. 20 January 1883), also spelt Rangacharlu, was an Indian civil servant and administrator who served as the 14th Dewan of Mysore from 1881 to 1883.
Rungacharlu began his career as an acting clerk in the Madras Collectorate on a salary of rupees fourteen per month.
Rungacharlu performed well as a Head Writer and published two pamphlets: Bribery and Corruption in the Revenue Department and Mirasi Rights in the Chingleput and Tanjore Districts.
He was serving as Treasury Deputy Collector at Calicut in 1868 when he was invited to join the Mysore civil service.
After a detailed enquiry, the disappearance of the jewels was attributed to a clerical error and Rungacharlu was absolved of all the accusations.
Soon after Rungacharlu took over as Dewan, he disbanded Hassan and Chitradurga districts and downgraded nine taluks into deputy amildar sections.
With the revenue generated by the sale of sandalwood, Rungacharlu developed an elaborate railway system for the princely state.
