At their 40-Year Reunion, the Class of 1986 came together to pledge ₹11 crore toward initiatives that will enhance the student experience at Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, strengthening student life spaces, mental health and wellbeing, and residential infrastructure.

This collective commitment reflects a shared belief in building an Institute that supports not just academic excellence, but the holistic growth of its students, today and for generations to come.

With sincere gratitude to the Class of 1986 (IITK' 82) for their leadership, generosity, and enduring bond with IIT Kanpur.
