C. K. Pithawala College of Engineering and Technology is a self-financed Institute which started its functioning in December, 1998 affiliated initially with Veer Narmad South Gujarat University, Surat and now with Gujarat Technological University, Ahmedabad. C. K. Pithawala College of Engineering And Technology is being managed by the Navyug Vidyabhavan Trust which was founded in February, 1965. The aims and objectives of the Trust are to provide facilities for higher education to students without consideration of caste, community, sex or religion and to undertake research in the exact and social science.

The intake capacity in Engineering Colleges in Gujarat State in the late 1990s was very much inadequate to cater the demand of the engineering graduates. Because of limited number of engineering colleges in the Gujarat state, number of students have to seek admission in colleges in the other states on India such as Maharashtra and Karnataka.

Looking to the above fact, in line with the objective of the trust, the institute “C. K. Pithawala College of Engineering and Technology” was established in the year 1998 under the aegis of the Navyug Vidyabhavan Trust to take upon itself the responsibility of providing technical education.

Late Shri. C. K. Pithawalla has been the driving force for the setting up of this institute named after him. The management has vowed to run the institute with the professional attention to each student to develop their overall personality and thereby making them more compatible to the Industrial standards. For the purpose, the institute is provided with all the necessary facilities for establishment of quality teaching learning process.
