Supreme Court of India dismisses all AICTE cases against IIPM and upholds IIPM's right to impart MBA education without AICTE approval
The fight was on since 2007. AICTE believed that IIPM's program was under its purview and kept on sending notices. IIPM on its part kept challenging those notices and going about aggressively promoting its programs and in 2013 got all notices against it dismissed in the High Court of Delhi. AICTE then went to the Supreme Court and challenged the order. Finally after 12 long years, it is our sheer delight to share, IIPM has gained the legal right to run its MBA level education programs without any interference from AICTE.
Through an order dated 24th July 2019 wrt S.L.P. (C) No. 17765 of 2014 SUPREME COURT OF INDIA's three member bench - which included the Honorable Chief Justice of India, Shri Ranjan Gogoi - upheld IIPM's decades long contention that management education does not come under AICTE (and doesn't need AICTE approval) by dismissing AICTE's case appeal against IIPM

and thus upholding the May 30, 2013 High Court judgement
(https://wap.business-standard.com/article/pti-stories/hc-quashes-aicte-notices-against-iipm-113053000880_1.html)
& the earlier 2013 judgement of the Supreme Court
(https://www.thehindubusinessline.com/news/education/apex-court-allows-pvt-colleges-to-offer-mba-mca-sans-aicte-nod/article23111357.ece)
that MBA education doesn't come under AICTE.
It has basically clarified that IIPM is free to run its MBA level programs that leads to the award of IIPM's own Diploma & Certification without any permission from AICTE.
We are thankful to the Supreme Court of India

IIPM always claimed that its courses were superior to normal MBA level courses taught anywhere in the country and are proud that we were the fore-runners in this battle for autonomy and never bowed down to any pressure from AICTE ever. It is unfortunate that detractors and regulators in the urge to stop IIPM's spectacular story spread rumours and fake stories and even made many in judiciary and media to fall for it from time to time.
We hope to get your continued support in changing the landscape of management and entrepreneurial education in India and take our world-class education imparted by the rarest breed of spectacular faculty, to the masses.
Finally our stance stands vindicated today. As we always said, Dare to think Beyond.
