Our Leadership

The DES’ JS Kothari Business School is part of the century old Deccan Education Society (DES) established by Lokmanya Tilak and other stalwarts of India’s freedom struggle. DES is one pf the largest educational conglomerates in western India having under its umbrella, schools and colleges delivering courses across different domains including Humanities, Science, Commerce, Law, Nursing, Physiotherapy, Agri-Business, Media and Management. DES is known to its stakeholders as an institution that delivers value-based education and education that is value for money and inclusive in every sense of the term, as was envisioned by its founders.  

DES’ JS Kothari Business School is in the Dadar, Mumbai campus of Deccan Education Society, and is the sister institute of Kirti College Mumbai, a respected educational brand with a legacy of over six decades. Nestled against the backdrop of the Arabian Sea, the beautiful setting contributes to the institute’s positive and vibrant vibe. 

DES’ JS Kothari Business School is part of a great legacy and born out the tremendous goodwill that DES has with its stakeholders, particularly industry.  

I see DES’ JS Kothari Business School as an evolving story. It has all the ingredients of a great story – great students, dedicated teachers, experiential, hands-on project-based learning, the legacy of DES and a great setting by the Arabian Sea! I invite you to be a part of this story!
