The Indian Institute of Management Guwahati (IIM Guwahati or IIM-G) is a public business school located in Guwahati, Assam, India. Established in 2025 through the Indian Institutes of Management (Amendment) Bill, 2025,[1] it is the 22nd institution to be added under the Indian Institutes of Management (Amendment) Bill, 2025, granting it the status of an Institution of National Importance.[2][3]
Background[edit | edit source]
The establishment of IIM Guwahati is part of a broader initiative to enhance educational infrastructure in the north-eastern region of India.[3][4] The Union Cabinet approved the bill to set up the institute, marking it as the second IIM in the Northeast after IIM Shillong, which was established in 2007.[1] The central government has committed an investment of ₹555 crore over five years (2025–2030) for the development of the institution.[5][6]
IIM Guwahati will be mentored by IIM Ahmedabad and is set to commence its academic session in the current year.[2][7] Initially, classes will be held at a temporary campus provided by the state, with plans for a permanent campus in Palasbari, Kamrup district.[8] The establishment of IIM Guwahati is expected to foster regional development by attracting talent and fostering economic growth in the Northeast.[8][1]
