The IIA Awards are one of the oldest and most respected marks of success in the architects and builders community in India, especially since the Institute is the only body of Architects in the country that has been associated with all government bodies, for more than 90 years in the industry. As such, it is a living testimony to the development and growth of Architecture in India. The Awards were instituted in 1989, and since then have emerged as the most prestigious honors bestowed upon professionals for Excellence in Architecture in India. The IIA Awards aim to encourage, acknowledge, appreciate and honor the significant contributions of member professionals in the field of Architecture.

The Awards are the only ones that are judged by the architects, for architects all over India. Each year, the awards are given in six categories, namely, Residential, Public, Industrial, Landscape Design and Research.

The institute invites its entire community of fellow and member Architects for the awards ceremony, held in different cities every year. The IIA Awards 2010 ceremony was held at Nasik on 8th January, 2011.

This year, the Awards Ceremony is poised to be the grandest and the most unique event ever held for the Architects and Builders community in India.

For the first time in 5 years, the event will be held in New Delhi – the home of many reputed professional bodies and institutes in the country, e.g. School of Planning and Architecture, Institute of Town Planners, Institute of Indian Interior Designers and 15 other Architectural Colleges operating in Delhi-NCR region.
