It is an annual convention which takes place in mid January every year. It was started in 2010 by a group of seven students, Mohit Mundra, Suryansh Shukla, Pranjal Johri, Rohit Kulkarni, Rohit Chaudhary, Sai kiran T., and Aditya Kharbade. Consortium is one of the very few conventions in India to be organised by engineering undergraduates. 4000 students from various institutes (IIMs, IITs, NLUs, NITs etc.) in the country take part in many of the events organized as a part of Consortium.
