Gandhi surprisingly didn't receive many significant rewards though was very frequently named person of the year in many magazines and media outlets. Gandhi was nominated multiple times for the Noble Peace Prize but didn't receive it. The givers of the prize later admitted guilty in not giving him the reward due to nationalist views and apparently would have given it to him in 1948. Unfortunately he was assassinated that year before the nominations could finish. The Noble Peace Prize was not given out that year as according to the judges that there were no suitable living recipients.

Time magazine named Gandhi the Man of the Year in 1930. Gandhi was also the runner-up to Albert Einstein as "Person of the Century" at the end of 1999. The Government of India awards the annual Mahatma Gandhi Peace Prize to distinguished social workers, world leaders and citizens.

Gandhi never received the Nobel Peace Prize, although he was nominated five times between 1937 and 1948, including the first-ever nomination by the American Friends Service Committee, though he made the short list only twice, in 1937 and 1947. Decades later, the Nobel Committee publicly declared its regret for the omission, and admitted to deeply divided nationalistic opinion denying the award.Gandhi was nominated in 1948 but was assassinated before nominations closed. That year, the committee chose not to award the peace prize stating that "there was no suitable living candidate" and later research shows that the possibility of awarding the prize posthumously to Gandhi was discussed and that the reference to no suitable living candidate was to Gandhi. When the 14th Dalai Lama was awarded the Prize in 1989, the chairman of the committee said that this was "in part a tribute to the memory of Mahatma Gandhi."
