The NIBM has been functioning for 55 years having established in 1968 under the purview of the Ministry of Industries and Scientific Affairs in collaboration with the United Nations Development Program as an agency for the implementation of the programs of the ILO.  It was subsequently incorporated as the National Institute of Business Management by an Act of Parliament (The National Institute of Business Management Law No 23 of 1976). Certain amendments to this Act were brought in under Act No. 28 of 1991.

NIBM functioning as a statutory body under the Ministry of Education is an educational institution in the government sector. We are a self–sustained, internationally accepted, UGC recognised degree awarding institute. From 2009 onwards we won the Merit Award at the presentation of National Quality Awards and in addition, ISO – 9001-2008 standards certificate has also been awarded to NIBM.
