Audited Statement of Accounts and Auditor’s Report for the year 2016-2017 Director’s Report It is my proud privilege and pleasure to present the Annual Report 2016-17 of the Indian Statistical Institute. This Institute, established by P.C. Mahalanobis in a small laboratory of Presidency College, Calcutta in 1931, has grown into a unique institution of higher learning spread over several cities of the country. As in the past, the Institute continues its glorious tradition of disseminating knowledge in Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Quantitative Economics and related subjects. The year 2016 saw the reconstitution of the Council of the Institute for the term 2016-2018. We are happy to inform you that Dr. Vijay Kelkar has taken over as the President of the Institute succeeding Dr. C. Rangarajan and Professor Goverdhan Mehta has taken over as the Chairman of the Council succeeding Dr. Arun Shourie. We firmly believe that the Institute will continue to flourish under their able guidance. The Institute celebrated its 51st Convocation in January 2017. Professor Leslie Gabriel Valiant, T. Jefferson Coolidge Professor of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics, Harvard University, USA, and A.M. Turning Award Winner delivered the convocation address as the Chief Guest. The year 2017 also marks the beginning of 125th birth anniversary year of Professor P.C. Mahalanobis. The Post Graduate Diploma course in Business Analytics conducted jointly with Indian Institute of Management, Kolkata and Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, saw its first outgoing batch this year. This course has been designed keeping in mind the global requirement for professionals in Business Analytics in the coming years. The Post-Graduate Diploma in Statistical Methods and Analytics (PGDSMA) course has been running successfully at the N-E Centre, Tezpur. All the students of the 2016-17 batch passed out with First Division, including six with distinction, and as per the Memorandum of Agreement with Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), all of them will be absorbed by TCS. A large number of prestigious awards and honours was bestowed upon the Scientists of our Institute for their significant contributions in various fields.
