Shree Chanakya Education Society (SCES), Pune was founded in 1994 with a vision to nurture corporate and entrepreneurial talent among the youth. Recognizing that strong education is the foundation of global leadership, Indira Group of Institutes (IGI) was established to provide world-class learning across diverse disciplines.
