Answer:

The given statement is False.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chandragupta Maurya was the founder of the Mauryan Empire in India. It was the first empire of ancient India. On the other hand, The founder of the Gupta empire was Sri Gupta. He was succeeded by some prominent rulers belonging to the Gupta dynasty such as Chandragupta I, Samudragupta, Chandragupta-II and Kumaragupta etc. Accordingly, it is proven that Chandragupta Maurya belonged to the Mauryan dynasty and no to the Gupta dynasty.
