Corporate Overview & History
Delhi Education Institute (DEI) was established in 1995 by a group of veteran educators with the vision of delivering high‑quality, affordable education across India. Starting as a single senior secondary school in New Delhi, DEI expanded rapidly into a pan‑India network of schools, colleges, and vocational training centres. Today DEI operates more than 120 institutions, serving over 150,000 students from kindergarten to postgraduate levels. The institute’s core mission is to foster holistic development through a blend of academic excellence, skill‑based learning, and inclusive education. DEI’s corporate office in New Delhi oversees strategic planning, curriculum design, and brand management, while regional hubs in Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata, Pune and Ahmedabad coordinate day‑to‑day operations, teacher training, and community outreach.
