The temple was conceptualized by late Shri Punamchand Shah who was staunch Devotee of Maa Chamunda. He initiated to form Shree Devi Mandal trust in 1974 and his close associates were the initial trustees. The construction started in 1978 and work had some crucial time also. The trust depended on small donations to have larger base of devotees. Flow of donations used to be uneven, which at times hampered the pace of construction. It was completed in 1995.
