The Mechanical Engineering Department, Institute of Technology, Nirma University, is incredibly proud to celebrate the stellar achievement of our distinguished alumnus, Dushyant Bheda (B.Tech Mechanical Engineering, Class of 2014).
In a momentous ceremony held at the National Academy of Direct Taxes (NADT), Nagpur, in April 2026, Dushyant Bheda (IRS) was conferred with a Gold Medal by the Hon’ble President of India, Smt. Droupadi Murmu.
🌟 Excellence in National Service
This prestigious recognition was awarded during the valedictory ceremony for the 78th batch of Indian Revenue Service (IRS) officers. Securing a gold medal at this level is a testament to:
Exceptional Merit: Standing out among the nation’s finest civil service trainees.
Dedication to Service: Demonstrating outstanding commitment during the rigorous professional training at NADT.
Leadership: Representing the high standards of integrity and excellence expected of an IRS officer.
🎓 Inspiration for the Next Generation
Dushyant’s journey—from the classrooms of our B.Tech Mechanical (2010–2014 batch) program to being honored by the Head of State—serves as a powerful inspiration for our current students. After graduating from ITNU with student ID 10BME002, he furthered his academic journey at IIM Kozhikode before clearing the UPSC CSE 2022 with an impressive AIR 262.
His path highlights that the analytical rigor and discipline instilled during an engineering education provide a versatile foundation for excelling in the highest levels of Indian administration.
We extend our heartiest congratulations to Dushyant Bheda on this monumental milestone. We are certain he will continue to bring honor to his alma mater as he serves the nation with distinction.
Congratulations, Dushyant! Your success is a proud moment for the entire Nirma University family.
