[edit] Founding
In 1950, a proposal for establishing a commerce college in the Hindi medium was mooted by a few philanthropists including Raja Bankatlal Badruka and Sri Pannalal Pittie. Nawab Ali Yawar Jung Bahadurji, the then Vice Chancellor of Osmania University, appreciated the initiative and suggested that a college be started in English or Urdu medium with an endowment fund of Rs. 2.5 lakhs. Raja Bankatlalji donated the amount and obtained the approval to start a college with Intermediate Section in English medium. The first exclusive institution for students of commerce came into existence on 1950-08-02 and was inaugurated by Sri M K Vellodi, ICS, the then Vice Chancellor of Osmania University.
Initially, the trustees of Seth Gopikishan Educational and Charitable Trust were managing the activities of the College. In 1966, Seth Ghasiram Gopikishan Badruka Educational Society was established and was registered under Public Society Registration Act. Over the years, the Society's educational activities expanded.
