“My involvement with alumni activities started with mentoring students as part of ASMP and IDEAS program of the DSSE. When my passion to give back to my alma mater met with the preparation for Class of '96 SJRU event, I jump in headlong. As a liaison between my batch and the campus, I was involved in almost every aspect of the SJRU. It was an immensely satisfying experience seeing my classmates after 25 years and seeing them on campus where it all started. It was magical and I am glad I had a role to play in creating that magic.“

“Time spent at IIT was some of the best years of my life. Working with HF, being a volunteer, a batch leader for the reunion takes you back to an era of working selflessly towards a common goal serving common good. Pleasure of working with kindred spirits like Zenobia, Dosa, Manake and a whole host of amazingly beautiful souls is in many ways just so joyful that one cannot fully describe in a few words. To future batches - the institute benefiting from your work is a by-product, the real benefit is you experiencing the power of being a part of the collective whole“

Project

Few initiatives in IIT Bombay’s history have reflected the power of alumni collaboration quite like Project Evergreen—a landmark effort bringing together vision, generosity, and a deep commitment to the student experience. This alumni-led, alumni-built, and alumni-delivered world-class hostel complex, supported by corporates and well-wishers, provides students with modern living spaces that enhance their campus experience. Three state-of-the-art hostels, H7, H8, and H21 (a dedicated women’s hostel), now add 848 hostel rooms with 1127 beds. Operational since July 2025, the hostels are home to students who are living, learning, debating, dreaming, and forming friendships that will last a lifetime.
