Welcome to Hyderabad (Sind) National Collegiate Board
Where education is not just a degree, but a transformational experience. Our journey began over a century ago, in 1917 when a visionary group led by Dr Annie Besant and Rishi Dayaram Gidumal established D.G. National College. Since then, we have come a long way, overcoming challenges and achieving new heights of excellence.
When the Partition struck in 1947, Principal Khushiram Motiram Kundnani, a refugee forced to relocate, dreamed of building a college in Bombay and with a lot of hard work, dedication and supports from fellow achievers, like Barrister Hotchand Advani and the Sindhi community opened the first college in 1949. Today, HSNC Board not only runs one, but 16 colleges, 8 schools, a university, and 3 institutes, offering a diverse range of undergraduate, postgraduate, international, and skill development programs for close to 45,000 students.
Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education.
