THE MINISTER OF CORPORATE AFFAIRS (SHRI ARUN JAITLEY)

(a) : The Indian Institute of Corporate Affairs has been established as a Society in 2008 at Manesar (Haryana) to act as a think tank, as an action research, service delivery and capacity building institute and also a platform for value-adding partnerships between Government, corporate entities and other stake holders. The Institute conducts various courses, seminars, workshops etc. on issues of relevance to the corporate sector, for officials, bankers, investors and other stakeholders. These programmes are organized in the Institute’s campus, other places in the country and through e-mode. The Institute, however, does not conduct any regular on-campus courses and as such there are no seats allotted for the same.
