[edit] Controversy

However, it should be noted that the claim of IISWBM being the first management institute in India is disputed as the Xavier's Labour Relations Institute XLRI [1] was established in 1949 at Jamshedpur by the Jesuit Society. Similarly Sir Dorabji Tata School of Social Work, Bombay was founded in 1936.

Proponents have argued that XLRI Jamshedpur and similarly Sir Dorabji Tata School of Social Work, Bombay offered courses in Labour Relations and Social Work respectively; and hence their claim to be the first business school is not valid. In this context, it must be mentioned that IISWBM also did not offer a course in Business Management till about 1968. The first course on offer was the Diploma in Social Welfare (DSW) and it was offered regularly till 2003 whence due to declining popularity of the course it was stopped and a new course Masters in Human Resource Management (MHRM) was introduced in it's place

[edit] Genesis

On July 5, 1954,Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy, Chief Minister of West Bengal and Founder – President of the Institute inaugurated the first Business Management Course in India.Dr. Jehangir Gandhy,Chairman , All India Board of Technical Studies in Management ,Union Ministry of Education ,who could not be present at the inaugural ceremony sent a message saying "I am glad that the All India Institute of Social Welfare and Business Management is inaugurating today Business Management Course for the first time in India for the benefit of junior Business executives".

IISWBM was set up in collaboration with the Government of West Bengal, the University of Calcutta and the Business Community of West Bengal to promote management education. The University of Calcutta affiliated the MBA program of the Institute for 50 years. The affiliation, which was supposed to end in 2003 is still renewed on a year by year basis by the University

The institute celebrated its Golden Jubilee in 2003 and the Government Of India released a stamp on IISWBM to celebrate the event; no other Management Institute in India so far has been accorded this honour.
