This Institute is the second Government institute to start in 1962 under the Ministry of food after the Dadar Catering College, Bombay (Now IHM Mumbai). It was started by the Government Of India under the guidance of Sir Belfield Smith in Pusa, New Delhi in the abandoned barracks behind present employment exchange building.
Rankings & Awards
The Institute has been ranked as the number one Hotel Management institute in India by Ministry of Tourism, Government of India for the past few years. It is also ranked as the top hotel management institute by news agencies like Outlook and Hindustan Times. There has been a tough competition between IHM Mumbai and IHM Pusa for the first place in the past but both are the best institutes of hotel management in India and are unique in their own ways. [1]
Vegetarian Option
In 2016, three IHMCTANs - Ahmedabad, Bhopal and Jaipur - started giving a student the option to choose only vegetarian cooking. In 2018, the National Council for Hotel Management (NCHM) announced that all IHMs will provide a vegetarian option beginning academic year 2018. This decision to offer a vegetarian option by IHMCTANs may be the first amongst any of the hospitality training institutes of the world.[2][3][4] IHMCTAN at Pusa had already been experimenting with vegan cooking through "vegan months" and sustainability practices such as rainwater harvesting.[5]
