Ainesh Das

Head Boy – Student Council

About

I am a first-year student in the Integrated Programme in Management (IPM) at IIM Shillong. I bring a strong analytical mindset, combined with leadership experience and a growing interest in strategic problem-solving and finance. My academic journey began with a deep love for mathematics. I was selected for the prestigious Kohinoor batch at Allen Mumbai, which comprised the top 30 JEE Advanced aspirants in Maharashtra. In 2024, I cracked the highly competitive CMI UG entrance and briefly joined the program, but soon realised that my true interests lay in business, communication, and applied decision-making. In 2025, I converted 5 out of 7 IIM IPM programs (all in the first list), and chose IIM Shillong for its emphasis on sustainability, strategy, and leadership. I served as Head Boy in 2022 and Assistant Head Boy in 2021, and have consistently been active in co-curricular like public speaking, debates, and school events. I have also trained in Indian classical music up to Class 9 and enjoy playing chess and cricket recreationally. My current interests lie at the intersection of mathematics, strategy, and leadership — and I aspire to build a career in strategic consulting or finance.
