History

From 1949 upto 2018 and since IMA Kalyan was established, the period can be divided into 2 parts. First part, an olden golden era or Pre - CME era upto 1991 and second modern beautiful era or CME era 1991 onwards.

In first era there was a lot of struggle for existence because of few members and paucity of funds, yearly subscription, delaying payment of same resulted in non payment of central contribution. Then central IMA used to send notices of dissolution of Kalyan IMA. Then there were efforts of members coming together and reviving the the organisation in 1991. Details of this period are scattered and memory based. Dr Lalit Katkar prepared an article with help of Dr R.N. Shukla which is available in Souvenir of xix CME 2010. In this period, 16 Presidents officiated the chair and 8 of them are unfortunately not amongst us now.

Second era is from 1991 onwards when IMA Kalyan was revived. In this period, there was gradual increase in membership, income, sponsorship, social activities etc. Later on there was introduction of life membership. In this period the constitution of IMA Kalyan was formed and IMA Kalyan was registered as a Trust with Subregistrar, Charity Commissioner Thane in 1998 and then with Charity Commissioner Thane in 1999 as per procedure. In 1992, annual CME or conference of IMA Kalyan started in the month of December which was 1-day conference and later on evolved as one and half day and now 2-days conference.
