ABOUT INDIRA GROUP OF INSTITUTES

Shree Chanakya Education Society’s “Indira Group of Institutes”, Pune was established in 1994, with the explicit vision to provide sustainable impetus to the corporate and entrepreneurial abilities in the youth. The realization that a robust framework of education is indispensable for the growth of global leaders, the visionary, Dr. Tarita Shankar, Chairperson, Indira Group, integrated her pursuit of excellence and articulated educational institutions, known as Indira Group of Institutes (IGI), which imbibe human excellence and demonstrate strong social values, with a single minded pursuit of developing the youth to become business leaders.

Chairperson's Message

Dear Students

Pursuit of Management Education at Indira Group of Institutes has been an inspiring journey. With over two decades of existence, and shortly closing on twenty five years of celebrating education, Indira strongly believes in the power of education to transform the youth. The philosophy, governance and values of business are witnessing a sea change and plenty of its repercussions are already being witnessed across the globe. Indira embraces these changes and epitomizes matching innovation in curriculum. Such transformational efforts lead our aspiring managers to become professionals who develop capabilities to lead in dynamic environment.

Quality being the bottom line for every industry, Indira has never lost sight of the fact that for India to forge ahead in its drive towards economic supremacy in the world, it is the quality of our people who drive it that matters most. And quality, as the cliché goes, is never an accident but an article of faith, and the entire faculty team at Indira embodies such dedication to quality. The Indira Group has proven itself on this count and has no intention of resting on its laurels.

Indira offers holistic and transformative learning experience, designed and delivered by experts from industry and academia. While the curriculum keeps the programs contextually abreast, innovative pedagogies inspire application oriented learning.

Indira strives to create good human beings and not just professionals. With the confidence that our intentions have matched our efforts, I wish you the very best in the future.

Director's Message

The last couple of years have proved that in the world of business, while growth gives you a level of satisfaction in performance, a decline can quickly become a tool of depression for the economy as well as the individual. While for the economy it is the concerted effort of the entire nation and the government, and the rest of the world in lifting the cycle of slowdown, in the case of the individual it is more likely a personal effort supported by other stakeholders in the individual like his dependants, family members, friends and employers etc.

Many believe and rightly too, that the calibrated liberalization of the Indian economy from the 1990s has actually been a key to India doing itself proud in this international economic fight. To me, it is the Indian psyche which is the creature of the Indian system and environment that always manages to upstage the adversities and challenges to come out victorious.

Educational institutions like the Indira Institute of Management Pune have played a key role in the shaping of the Indian psyche. From its inception in 1994, IIMP has been meeting the needs of India Inc. for management talent and our alumni have brought pride and glory to their alma mater by their disciplined and masterly performance in the face of challenges that we have discussed above.

With each passing year, IIMP is adding value to its courses through additional infrastructure and intellectual capital in the form of highly talented faculty and mentors, resorting to the most modern teaching methods that make IIMP an institution of merit in the post graduate education scene in Pune.

Your search for a suitable management institution to meet your legitimate career aspirations ends at IIMP. Our students are our best ambassadors and we are proud of their achievements. For our part, IIMP is committed to providing the best to the students in all aspects of their stay with us, and even beyond.

I welcome you to the portals of IIMP and hope that you will very soon join the ranks of the hundreds of students who have passed through the gates of this venerable Institution and reap the benefits through better career options and building a more satisfying individual personality.
