Earlier, on its 26th Foundation Day in 2021, the Lal Bahadur Shastri Institute of Management (LBSIM) Dwarka, Delhi, celebrated at its college premises. The event was highlighted with the gracious presence of Gurcharan Das (Author and Former CEO, Procter and Gamble, India), who delivered a lecture virtually on "Don't Just Make a Living, Make a Life". The event was presided over by Anil Shastri, Former Union Minister & Chairman, LBSIM. While interacting with the audience, Das had said, "We should always believe in doing rather than imagining in thoughts for better results.

The recipients included Manpreet Singh (1996-98), Group Head - New Business and Diversification Advisory, Somany Impressa Group; Amit Kurseja (2003-05), Head of Merchant Acceptance for Amazon Pay India; Ardaman Singh (1995-97), Training Coordinator with Anand Corp Services Ltd.; Ekta Kumar (1996-1998), Social Impact and Change Management Leader; and Gopal Iyer (2004-2006), Supply Chain Leader in process transformation, change management and service improvement.
