The Indira Gandhi Polytechnic College Alumni Association (IGPTCAA) has a highly active and growing community of over 500 alumni, living in over 20 countries. IGPTCAA is serving as forum to promote and foster good relationship between alumni, present students, management and teaching faculty. IGPTCAA has established endowment prize awards to the meritorious students.

It is the vision of the alumni of IGPTC-Mahe to project it as a successful and a leading institution of learning technology. One of the main components towards fulfilling such goal would be to motivate the students of the institution to win in their examinations and ultimately in life.

In order to encourage the financially unsound candidates the educational prospect at IGPTC-MAHE needs to be properly supported. These scholarships have been implemented by the contributions from the Alumni members across the globe and well wishers of IGPTC. We are confident that the relationship between the present and the past students will continue to grow in the years to come.

With this measure the Indira Gandhi polytechnic college alumni association with pleasure and pride launched an “INSPIRATION SCHOLARSHIP” for the economically backward students of IGPTC-MAHE. <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.igptc-mahe.org/alumni|title = ALUMNI}}</ref>
