Deshmukh as President and Dr. Sir Nil Ratan Sarkar and Bharat Ratna Dr. B.C. Roy as Vice Presidents. The head office was in Calcutta. In 1930, the Association was renamed as Indian Medical Association ( IMA ).

Upto the session 1933-34, there were no State or Local branches of IMA. In the 1934-35 Session, precisely on 29th June, 1935, first Local Branch of IMA was formed at Calcutta and was named as IMA Calcutta branch. The first president was late Col. Prof. K.K. Chatterjee and first Secretary was Dr. Girin Banerjee. The branch has completed 75 years on 29th June, 2010.
