IIT Bombay recently achieved a remarkable feat by breaking into the top 150 list in QS World Ranking 2024. It became the first institution to do that in the last 8 years.

Along with five other IITs ( IIT Delhi, IIT Kanpur, IIT Madras, IIT Roorkee and IIT Kharagpur), IIT Bombay had boycotted ‘THE World University Rankings‘ due to issue involved with the transparency of ranking parameters.
IIT-Bombay was established in 1958. It was the first institution in the country to be set up with foreign assistance. The varsity got its recognition in 1961, when the parliament declared the IITs as ‘Institutes of National Importance’.
