We are grateful for the support from individuals and the industry over the years that has helped ISB take significant strides towards fulfilling its vision of being among the leading business schools in the world.
See how alumni came together for Alumni Giving Week ’26
The one year at ISB has played a transformative role, personally and professionally, for many of us. It is therefore very special for us from the Class of 2005 to be able to come together in this manner and make this contribution to pay it forward and help others benefit from the fantastic experience that is ISB!
Ausang ShuklaPGP Class of 2005 
Our philosophy of ‘Learn, Earn and Return’ has always guided us. Education is the foundation upon which opportunities are built and futures are shaped. Through the executive centre at ISB, we hope to nurture future leaders who carry the spirit of enterprise and responsibility. This executive centre aims to empower generations with knowledge and values.

Education is the cornerstone of progress and empowerment. Bharti’s longstanding association with the Indian School of Business makes them a natural partner as we expand the scope of our higher education scholarships. Through the Bharti Airtel Scholarship, we take pride in supporting exceptional minds, our ‘Bharti Scholars’, who will become the leaders and changemakers of tomorrow. When talent meets opportunity, extraordinary things happen.
Rakesh Bharti MittalCo-Chairman, Bharti Airtel Foundation 
At DSP, we strongly believe that leadership development begins early, and that access to high-quality education should never be limited by financial constraints. Through this multi-year scholarship program with ISB, we are investing in young leaders at a formative stage of their journey, enabling them to focus on learning, self-discovery, and long-term impact. This initiative reflects our commitment to building a strong and inclusive foundation for future leadership in India.

Education has always been the foundation of progress. Through this initiative, we hope to empower ISB students to pursue their aspirations freely and contribute meaningfully to India’s future.
Mahavir Prasad TapariaManaging Director, Supreme Industries Limited 
In our Indian context, we understand the value of education and the power it holds to transform lives. As ISB alums, we have the opportunity to contribute to this transformational journey by supporting scholarship programmes that enable deserving students to pursue their dreams. Additionally, we can also contribute towards institution building by enhancing research capabilities, improving infrastructure, and creating more opportunities for students. Let us join hands and work towards creating a brighter future for generations to come.
Aakash Chaudhry (PGP Co 2004)Co-Founder & Chief Mentor, Aakash Educational Services Limited 
We wanted to be a part of this wonderful institution that was being planned by the best minds in academia and industry, and we are really happy that through the newly formed Chair Professorship, ISB will continue to provide thought leadership that it’s renowned for.

This gift helps us honour Ramoji Rao Garu’s memory by aiding the Indian School of Business in further developing world-class facilities, including an auditorium that will be a focal point for academic deliberations and exchange of knowledge. We believe that this will help facilitate a stronger economy, and a world-class Bharat, thus serving as an enduring testament of ISB’s standing as a global B-school.

Giving back to your university should not be viewed as altruism but as an investment. A good way of looking at it would be to imagine that if my children go to that university, they would benefit from such an investment. These are early days for ISB. Events like Solstice and Equinox bring students back. This is evidence that there is an emotional connect.
Deepak Parayanken (PGP Co 2011)Executive Director, Mozambique Holdings 
At ISB, we have a mission of developing future-ready leaders for India and the world, using practical, research based business insights. I am happy and proud to support this mission by helping expand our scholarship programme so that we make our high quality education available more widely across society and are able to attract more deserving students.
Doreswamy ‘Nandu’ NandkishoreVisiting Professor, Indian School of Business 
For me ISB was the place that gave me the basics of how to build a company. It also opened up opportunities for me to look at functions that I had no direct experience in before I went to ISB. This school holds a special place for me in my life - not only did I learn a lot, I also became part of a network that I have relied on over the years. So to make the School even stronger, I would like to give back and continue to do so in the coming years.
