Core Council

The Core Council is the epicentre of student activities at ISBF! Not only does it organise the mega annual inter-college cultural festival – Xenia, but it also puts together the much-loved annual college trip and various other marquee events. As it includes among its ranks an elected member, the Core Council represents the students of ISBF and is responsible for their welfare. In fulfilling this responsibility, it acts as a bridge between the management and the student body, which is a lesson in sleight-of-hand diplomacy as well as policy making and implementation.

Good research pieces get the opportunity to participate in ISBF’s national-level Paper Presentation Competition. To give further impetus to students’ research work, the ISBF Journal of Economics, Management and Finance has also been conceptualised. It will consist of research papers and articles written by researchers from all over the country.
