College bodies like Student Societies (Yuva, Nucleus and Enactus); incubation centre (SIIF) and MoE, GoI linked council (IIC) continue to help prepare mock business models and conduct competitions that encourage students to build business models. IIC and SIIF are putting in more efforts in this regard.
