Institute Of Human Behaviour And Allied Sciences

What Institute Of Human Behaviour And Allied Sciences does

The Institute of Human Behaviour and Allied Sciences (IHBAS) is a government-funded autonomous body established in 1993 under a Supreme Court of India directive following a public interest litigation, and registered under the Societies Act 1860. Headquartered at Dilshad Garden, Delhi, the institution is jointly funded by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (Government of India) and the Government of NCT of Delhi, and is governed by a council chaired by the Chief Secretary, Government of NCT of Delhi. IHBAS operates a 317-bed tertiary mental health and neurosciences hospital with outpatient, inpatient, specialty clinics, an Advance Centre for complex cases, and a diagnostic suite including pathology, neurochemistry, and radiology labs equipped with Erba, Roche, Eschweiler, and INDIKO Plus analyzers, plus digital EEG/PSG systems with video for the neurology department.

Its service portfolio spans psychiatric care, neurology, neurodevelopmental disabilities, geriatric mental health, addiction treatment, and community outreach delivered through Mobile Mental Health Units, satellite clinics, and teleconsultation services over WhatsApp and Skype (IHBAS PSY and IHBAS NEURO). IHBAS is also an academic and research institution running M.Sc. Psychiatric (Mental Health) Nursing, Post Basic Diploma in Psychiatric Nursing, and residency programs, alongside active research projects such as HIV Viral Load testing, Addiction Treatment Facilities (ATF), and RP-65. Its core technology stack is a healthcare delivery system with teleconsultation and community outreach rather than a software product; the institute does not generate commercial revenue, with operating costs met by statutory government grants and subsidized patient services under the Government of NCT of Delhi.
