ISI's inception can be followed back to the Factual Lab in Administration School, Kolkata set up by Mahalanobis, who worked in the Physical science Division of the school in the 1920s. Amid 1913–15, he did his Tripos in Science and Material science at College of Cambridge, where he ran over Biometrica, a diary of Measurements established by Karl Pearson. Since 1915, he taught Material science at Administration School, yet his enthusiasm for Insights became under the direction of polymath Brajendranath Seal. 

Numerous partners of Mahalanobis took an enthusiasm for Measurements and the gathering developed in the Factual Research facility. Considering the far reaching utilization of Measurements in taking care of different issues truth be told, for example, investigating multivariate anthropometric information, applying specimen studies as a technique for information gathering, examining meteorological information, assessing yield and so forth., this gathering, especially, Mahalanobis and his more youthful associates S. S. Bose and H. C. Sinha felt the need of framing a particular foundation to encourage research and learning of Insight.

As solicited by the Legislature from India, in 1950, ISI composed and arranged an exhaustive socio–economic national example review covering country India. The association named National Example Study (NSS) was established in 1950 for leading this overview. The field work was performed by the Directorate of NSS, working under the Service of Fund, while alternate errands, for example, arranging of the overview, preparing of field specialists, audit, information handling and classification were executed by ISI. 

In 1961, the Directorate of NSS began working under the Division of Insights of Legislature of India, and later in 1971, the configuration and investigation wing of NSS was moved from ISI to the Branch of Measurements shaping the National Specimen Review Association (NSSO).

J. B. S. Haldane joined the ISI as an examination teacher from August 1957, and stayed on until February 1961, when he had a dropping out with ISI Executive P.C. Mahalanobis over Haldane's going on a greatly plugged craving strike to dissent the United States compelling U.S. National Science Reasonable victors Gary Botting and Susan Cocoa from going to an ISI meal to which numerous conspicuous Indian researchers had been welcomed. Haldane helped the ISI develop in biometrics. Haldane likewise assumed a key part in adding to the structure and substance of the courses offered by ISI.

Until 1959, ISI was connected with the College of Calcutta. By 'The Indian Factual Organization Act 1959' of the Parliament of India, altered in 1995, ISI was proclaimed a foundation of national significance, and was approved to hold examinations and to give degrees and recognitions in Measurements, Arithmetic, Software engineering, Quantitative Financial matters, and in some other subject identified with Insights as distinguished by the Establishment every once in a while. ISI is a state funded college, as the same demonstration additionally expresses that ISI would be financed by the Focal Administration of India.

ISI had by the 1960s begun creating exceptional administration units in New Delhi, Chennai, Bangalore, Mumbai and Hyderabad to give consultancy administrations to business, industry and administrative open administration associations in the zones of Factual Procedure Control, Operations Exploration and Modern Designing. Also, Bangalore had a Documentation Research and Preparing Center (DRTC).

 In the early 1970s, the Delhi and Bangalore units were changed over to instructing focuses. In 2008, ISI Chennai was moved up to a showing centre. In 2011, ISI included another focus in Tezpur.
