About
Founded in April 2026 in Chennai, INAE Educational Trust was established as a public charitable trust under Indian law by Dr. Naveen Prasad Loganathan and Dr. D. Priya Dharshini.
Purpose
The trust's objects, as set out in the registered deed, are broad - spanning education, health, and research. Its work, however, will be built one institution at a time.
The trust was established as a dedicated vessel for institution-building, so that what it builds is governed by its own purpose and its own standards.
Institution-Building
Beginning with INAE Preschool, the trust intends to grow into a family of institutions that carry the INAE name and a shared commitment to the quality of their work. The trust gives that ambition the right form: a durable, irrevocable structure designed to outlast its founders.
