With Other Indian Institutes of Management (IIMS) planning to amend the Memorandum of Association (MOA) to enable them to expand overseas, IIM Calcutta has decided not to follow suit as the institute does not have any immediate plan to foray abroad. IIM-JC Director Shekhar Chowdhury said. We are not going to amend the MOA for expanding overseas. There are no plans to set up branches abroad. This puts to rest the speculation that ITM-C may join IIM-Bangalore and IIM-Ahmedabad to amend its MOA for offshore foray despite the Centre discouraging such a move.
The issue of amending MOA of IIMS came into spotlight soon after the HRD ministry refusing IIM Bangalore to set up a centre in Singapore suggesting that the institute should first take care of the domestic requirements.
The request to open a branch in Singapore came from the government of that country for grooming professional managers, an area where the IIMS have excelled themselves and earned considerable reputation. The IIM-B, however, looked determined for an offshore foray as its Board of Governors approved amendment of its MOA enabling the institute to open branches abroad.
