Research & Facilitation Cell
RFC is the research and development wing of the organisation. It basically formulates itself to do relevant R & D for meeting the organizations’ research requirements essential for organizational growth and expansion. In other terms RFC is the knowledge management forum within the organisation.

MEDM and EDC cater to the creation of sustainable and commercially feasible enterprises and next generation of entrepreneurs respectively. The group, which is not catered to, is that of different entrepreneurs who have initiated and plunged into the enterprise building but lack in some or the other skills to run the enterprise successfully.
