In the twenty-first century, Indian higher education institutions face growing challenges in establishing administrative efficiency and governance accountability. IT-enabled systems have become innovative tools for addressing these challenges by streamlining operations, boosting transparency, and improving institutional performance. This study examines the influence of IT-enabled systems on governance in Indian higher education, focusing on the viewpoints of stakeholders from diverse institutions. To clarify the variables affecting adoption, advantages obtained, and challenges faced, the study employed a survey technique with a sample size of 150 participants. The results demonstrate that IT-enabled systems enhance the efficiency of admissions, faculty management, student services, and resource allocation by 70% to 80% significantly improving operational outcomes. However, difficult situations like resistance to change and inadequacies in the technological infrastructure continue to exist. This study highlights the need for strategic approaches to enhance IT-enabled governance systems in Indian higher education institutions.
