The Presidency Group of Institutions was established in 1976 by Mr. Abdul Hameed, with a vision to make quality education accessible to all. What began humbly with just two rooms and four students soon evolved into a mission for academic excellence, co-founded with his nephew, Dr. Nissar Ahmed, under the banner of St. Paul’s English School (later renamed Presidency School).
Through their dedication and foresight, the institution grew steadily in strength and reputation. After the untimely passing of Mr. Abdul Hameed, the mantle of leadership was taken up by the young and visionary Dr. Nissar Ahmed, whose commitment and determination elevated the Presidency Group into a distinguished name in education, known for its excellence, inclusivity, and forward-thinking approach.
Today, with over four decades of legacy, the Presidency Group of Institutions stands as one of Karnataka’s most respected educational organizations. It offers a holistic and transformative learning experience that seamlessly blends academics, innovation, and character-building. Guided by its mission to nurture future-ready leaders, the group continues to empower students to grow, excel, and make a meaningful difference in the world.
Under the visionary leadership of Dr. Nissar Ahmed, the Presidency Group of Institutions has achieved remarkable national and international recognition for its excellence in education. Presidency University ranks among the top institutions in the country, while Presidency College proudly holds an A+ accreditation from NAAC.
The Presidency Group of Institutions, consistently ranked among India’s leading CBSE and ICSE institutions, stand as a testament to the group’s unwavering pursuit of academic distinction and holistic development.

With an illustrious alumni network of over 1,50,000 individuals excelling in diverse fields around the globe, the Group continues to be a symbol of educational excellence and leadership.
