THE faculty council of the Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta (IIM-C) on Monday decided to move the Calcutta High Court challenging the validity of the 164th meeting of the board of governors, which took place on March 26, 2004.

Prof Asish Bhattacharyya, Dean (Planning & Administration) and spokesperson of the faculty council, told newspersons that the validity of the said meeting was being called into question since four members had been replaced or substituted just before the crucial meeting to decide on the fee cut issue.

The council has also recommended that the Director of the institute provisionally maintain the fee structure for the forthcoming session, which begins in May.

Prof Bhattacharyya said that the council has suggested that since the board of governors has not been able to take a decision on fee reduction as directed by the Union HRD Ministry, the continuation of the same fee structure was advisable in view of smooth functioning of the institute as per the curriculum.

In the just concluded two-year session, IIM-C had charged a total of around Rs 2.5 lakh. The payments were obtained in various stages. The initial payment was around Rs 48,000.

“We have also suggested to the Director, who was present at the council meeting today, that fee received in excess of what might be finally decided by the board of governors or the Supreme Court be refunded with interest to the students.”

Prof Bhattacharyya also said that it has been the practice at IIM-C that before every session the faculty would recommend the fee structure and the board would take it up for approval. The council has also suggested that the Director, in the absence of clarity, might keep aside the Central Government’s proposed grant of Rs 4 crore for 2003-04 on account of non-Plan expenditure.

“The fund has not come in yet. But if it comes, the council advises that it should not be used until the matter is resolved by the Supreme Court or through a process of dialogue.” Meanwhile, the IIM-C faculty council has requested the Ministry that it be included in the process of dialogue on the fee revision issue.

The council has decided to form a three-member committee consisting of two faculty members and one alumnus for the proposed dialogue.

Calcutta: It’s management practices rather than a me-combat. Faculty members of the Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta, want the status quo on tuition fees will be maintained at least for the next academic year.

Faculty members say that the Institute of authorization to issue letters of a fresh cargo of students from next week, in which tuition fees must be clearly indicated.

The decision of the IIM-C’s Faculty meeting on Monday, is a clear defiance framed by resolution YC Deveshwar, president of the IIM-C’s Board of Governors.

The President of the European Union has HRD ministry bar annual fee of 1.25 lakh RS RS 30000

“Given that tuition fees should be clear to new students, the Council may decide that the fees issue and negotiate director Shekhar Chowdhury. We also proposed that the segregated funds, where money may be filed. If the fee is to bar the Apex court, we students money back with interest “, Ashish Bhattacharya, IIM-C-dean of planning and management said.

The director is expected to inform the Board of Governors of the Council decision. The Council also approved the decision of the ability to move high court on Tuesday.

A new teams up with a Alumnus and two members the ability to ensure that the HRD ministry has initiated a dialogue with members of the Faculty in the bar fees discussion. “The Supreme Court, the ministry believes that discussions with the IIMS to solve the problem of honoraria. In case of IIM-C, the Board of Directors and members have the option of opposing view and, therefore, we ask that the Ministry held separate discussions, “Bhattacharya added.

The Council said that the RS 4 crore kitty sent by the Observatory at low tide on any deficit are not currently used. “We believe it is in a separate account and can not handle now. We will wait until the Supreme Court to take a decision on the question that we decide how it is used,” said Bhattacharya.

After dumping taxes in the six IIMS, the HRD ministry has its eyes on other B-schools in the country.

The ministry is governed by the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE) to follow the recommendations of the UR Rao Committee and the state fee committees, once their reports, Slash and costs of all schools B.

Among the prominent institutes, which is perhaps in the line of fire of the line Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (New Delhi), Jamnalal Bajaj Institute (Mumbai), Symbosis (Pune) and XLRI (Jamshedpur). There are over 600 institutions managing the AICTE, all may have to reduce their costs, less than Rs 40,000 per year, ministry officials sources said. Currently, fees range from 60000 to R RS 1.5 lakh.

The UR Rao Committee has already, with its recommendations, which were used by the ministry to justify its decision to reduce taxes on IIMS 80 per cent. A Ministry said government sources charges committees its recommendations to the AICTE within two months.

If the IBM-Board meets Tuesday, the key decision will face as deeply to cut this period. And the result would be to say much about how fast and powerful, as the company’s new chief executive, Louis V. Gerstner Jr., wants its mark on the troubled computer giant, he joined in April.

If you are a second quarter enormous fees is that it works to the advantage of Mr. Gerstner - and IBM - for financial housecleaning necessary for a stroke and bold move with the reconstruction process. That must stop IBM, analysts say, is its recent history, the costs quarter after quarter, year after year, react to market changes, rather than control.

“Death by a thousand cuts is exactly what IBM has done for years,” said David Yoffie, a professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration. “Gerstner has helped to reduce as much as possible, as quickly as possible, that behind him.

Mr. Gerstner, provides Dan Mandresh, an analyst for Merrill Lynch & Company, is in favour of a “clear the decks” approach.
