Smt. J. D. Birla Institute came into existence as an informal body sponsored by the Calcutta Ladies Association. The association began informal classes in basic Home Science subjects with a view to helping housewives in social etiquette, flower decoration, needlework, painting, music and cooking. When these classes became popular, the idea to develop it into a regular Home Science college took root. The vision and foresight of the Late Smt. Sushila Devi Birla, wife of Late Shri L. N. Birla, the great industrialist led to the establishment of Smt. Jawahari Devi Birla Institute of Home Science. Thus, the institute began its formal career in June 1962, satisfying a much-needed demand for scientific training in homemaking for girls.
