Innovative Geotechnical Instrumentation was incorporated in 2002 by two engineers working in this field for over 20 years. After an extensive research into the constraints and site conditions, Mr. B. M. Gujral and Ms. Saba came up with designs which addressed a number of problems in geotechnical instrumentation like robustness, effective waterproof sealing, size, corrosive environments, sensitivity and accuracy. These designs were validated and work successfully at a number of major dam sites in India as well as abroad in South Asia, Australia and Europe. In 2011 after the death of Mr. Gujral, Mr. Urooj Mahmood and Mr.Tanveer Mahmood who were previously working in the firm joined as partners. Mr. Urooj is a graduate in Geo-informatics and Mr. Tanveer is a graduate in accounts.
