Who are we?
Late Shri Hari Shankar Singhania School of Business (HSB) is a premier institute providing a contemporary and immersive business education experience.
HSB’s launch programme is a 2-year fully residential MBA with specialisation in Product Management. The first of its kind in the country, this programme is a synthesis of high-in-demand courses spanning design, technology and business.
The foundation cohort will begin its transformation in June 2024.
Our philosophy
At HSB, we believe that business education should continuously respond to the changing needs of the market. To that end, our vision is to create a new generation of business leaders who put product at the centre of their decisions.

Late Shri Hari Shankar Singhania
(July 1, 1993)“We can achieve a competitive edge for the Indian economy in the global market. Have not Indian entrepreneurs and professionals distinguished themselves outside the shores of India? Surely, this performance can be achieved on our own Indian soil as well.”
Late Shri Hari Shankar Singhania
Padma Bhushan, Late Shri Hari Shankar Singhania’s professional life is a testimony to this visionary credo. Perceiving the linkages between a nation’s economic development and productive employment of well educated youth, he focussed on quality education in general, and management education in particular. IIM Lucknow pole vaulted to a leadership position during his 15 years (1992-2007) as the Chairman, Board of Governors.
Recognised widely as one of the long serving doyens of Indian industry, he successfully transitioned the J K Organisation from the Licence Raj to the Open Economy as its President, provided momentum to nation’s economic development while leading Indian Institutions, and demonstrated a global vision as President, International Chamber of Commerce, Paris, an honour accorded to only three Indians thus far. His enduring belief in the supremacy of purpose over profit was reflected in his support of numerous community centric philanthropic initiatives.
HSB has been crafted by the JK Organisation to honour his passion for globally relevant and futuristic management education which could drive holistic development in the digital world.
