SHILLONG: The Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Shillong continues to etch its legacy of academic brilliance.
Three outstanding students from the PGP-2023-25 batch—Kashish Sharma, Saagarika Bhasker Panyam, and Sampada Dubey—have added a new chapter to IIM Shillong’s tradition of excellence by securing the coveted Aditya Birla Scholarship.
Aastha Ratti, another bright mind from the same batch, has also earned accolades by clinching the esteemed OP Jindal Scholarship, a statement from the institute informed on Tuesday.
Expressing their gratitude, the scholars intend to utilise the scholarship funds for personal development and contributing to a better future.
Their commitment resonates with the ethos of IIM Shillong—a pledge to excellence, leadership, and positive societal impact.
The Aditya Birla Scholarship, a prestigious recognition, has been gracing IIM Shillong students since 2011.
This award, a symbol of academic excellence, is a proof of the institute’s dedication to producing leaders who can make a positive impact on society.
Established in 1999, the scholarship pays homage to the visionary late Aditya Vikram Birla, whose enduring legacy serves as a guiding light for aspiring leaders.
The recipients—Sharma, Panyam, and Dubey—are not just beneficiaries; they are torchbearers of the institute’s commitment to nurturing transformative leaders, the statement added.
Ratti’s accomplishment with the OP Jindal Scholarship further underlines IIM Shillong’s influence in fostering holistic development among its students.
The OP Jindal Engineering & Management Scholarship, instituted in 2007, stands as a tribute to OP Jindal, the visionary founder of the Jindal Group.
In the statement, IIM Shillong congratulated its scholars, acknowledging their outstanding achievements as a reflection of IIM Shillong’s unwavering commitment to producing leaders of the highest calibre.
