DMK · Won in 2021
Candidate declares only Rs. 4.4 lakhs in movable assets with zero immovable assets, but carries liabilities of Rs. 17 lakhs — nearly 4 times his declared total assets. This debt-to-asset ratio is concerning as the liabilities significantly exceed total declared wealth, raising questions about debt servicing capacity on a self-employed income.

Political History
2026 - Contesting first election as NTK candidate from Poompuhar constituency in Tamil Nadu Assembly elections
Achievements
• Representing a growing regional party that increased its statewide vote share from 1.1% (2016) to 6.72% (2021) and over 8% in 2024 Lok Sabha elections
As a Naam Tamilar Katchi candidate, Ilayanagulan benefits from the party's rising popularity among youth attracted to Tamil nationalism, with NTK securing over 8% votes statewide in 2024. However, NTK candidates have historically performed poorly in Poompuhar (just 1.01% in 2016), and the party faces criticism for controversial protests and leader Seeman's polarizing statements.
