On 03.08.1922, it
got renamed as the “Bombay Architectural Association” which got
associated with the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1925.
In 1926, the
Association got its present name “The Indian Institute of Architects”
and became a National Body.
On 02.09.1929, it
became registered under the Societies Registration Act XXI of 1860 as a
voluntary organisation of Architects.
The only other
Organisation at the National level is the “Council of Architecture”
which was established under the Architect’s Act 1972.
