About Miss India USA:
Miss India USA Pageant is produced by the IFC, based in New York City. The IFC began its
first annual “India Festival” in Central Park, New York City, in 1974. An integral component of
these festivals was the immensely popular “Fashion Show”, which was the first to be provided
to the Indian and American communities by the IFC.
By 1979, the “Fashion Show” had become so popular that it was proposed to start the first ever
Miss India USA Pageant in 1980. The various groups/organizations in the major cities of USA
were contacted to start Indian pageants in various states and send the winner to New York to
compete for Miss India USA. The pageant was an instant success and has been acclaimed as
“the most glamorous Indian function in the country” by India Today.
About Miss India World:
Miss India Worldwide Pageant is produced by the IFC, based in New York City.
The IFC is a pioneer organization in conducting Indian pageants and fashion shows in the USA
and worldwide. The committee has also been conducting the Miss India New York and the Miss
India USA Pageants annually since 1980.
In 1990, Mr. Dharmatma Saran, Chairman and Founder of the IFC, decided to take the pageant
one step further to an international level and started The First Miss India Worldwide Pageant.
For the first time ever, Asian-Indian communities from all over the world came together in New
York for this event. The pageant was an instant success and was acclaimed as “the most
glamorous Indian function in the world.” To the best of our knowledge, no other ethnic
organization has ever conducted a pageant of this magnitude on an international level.
In line with other prestigious international pageants, we have also started staging Miss India
Worldwide in various parts of the world. In 1997, the pageant was organized in Bombay to
salute India on its 50th anniversary of independence. In 1998, the pageant was organized, in
association with UTV International, in the exotic and beautiful city of Singapore.
The IFC selects distinguished local organizations in various parts of the world and authorizes
them to conduct national pageants in their respective countries. At this time, we have affiliates
in over twenty-five countries.
