According to Prithviraja Vijaya, Chandraraja was a son of his predecessor Vigraharaja I.[1] The later Hammira Mahakavya, however, states that his father was Vigraharaja's ancestor Naradeva.[2]
Chandraraja I was a son of the Chahamana king Vigraharaja I. He was succeeded by his brother Gopendraraja, who in turn was succeeded by Chandraraja's son Durlabharaja I.[1]
