Balasubramanian, who also served as the Founder President & Chancellor of Sri Balaji University, Pune. The society underwent a pivotal move in 2006 to its current location in Tathwade, Pune. The transformative journey toward becoming a university in 2019 was made possible by the unwavering dedication and foresight of our esteemed founder.
At the heart of Sri Balaji University is the Balaji Institute of Technology and Management (BITM), the institution’s technological hub.
