AIM SUMMIT FUND, INC.
For shareholders who seek capital growth through systematic investments. 


ABOUT FUND PERFORMANCE AND PORTFOLIO DATA THROUGHOUT THIS REPORT:

* Unless otherwise indicated, Fund results were computed without a sales charge.
  When sales charges are included in performance figures, those figures reflect
  deduction of the Fund's 8.50% maximum sales charge. The 8.50% sales charge is
  attributable to the 15-year investment plan.

* One-year performance results include reinvested distributions of $0.485 per 
  share.

* AIM Summit Fund's performance figures are historical and reflect reinvestment 
  of all distributions, and changes in net asset value.

* The Fund's investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an
  investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their
  original cost.

* The Fund's portfolio is subject to change, and there is no guarantee it will 
  continue to hold these same securities.

* Dollar-cost averaging does not assure a profit and does not protect against
  loss in declining markets. And since dollar-cost averaging involves continuous
  investing regardless of fluctuating securities prices, investors should
  consider their ability to continue purchases over an extended period of time.

* Past performance cannot guarantee comparable future results.

ABOUT INDEXES AND OTHER PERFORMANCE BENCHMARKS CITED IN THIS REPORT:

* The Dow Jones Industrial Average is a price-weighted average of 30 actively 
  traded primarily industrial stocks.

* The unmanaged Lipper Growth Fund Index represents an average of the 
  performance of the 30 largest growth funds charted by Lipper Analytical 
  Services, Inc., an independent mutual funds performance monitor.

* The NASDAQ (National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation

* The Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) is a group of unmanaged securities widely
  regarded by investors to be representative of the stock market in general.

  indicated, index results include reinvested dividends and do not reflect sales
  charges.

                     Dear Shareholder:

                     AIM Summit Fund, Inc. provided its shareholders with      
                     noteworthy total return of 31.03%, including reinvested 
    [PHOTO OF        distributions of $0.485 per share, during the fiscal year  
  CHARLES T. BAUER   ended October 31. The Fund outperformed not only the     
  CHAIRMAN OF THE    26.36% gain of the Standard & Poor's Composite Index      
 BOARD OF THE FUND   of 500 Stocks, but also the 23.98% return posted by the   
   APPEARS HERE]     unmanaged Lipper Growth Fund Index, which tracks mutual    
                     funds sharing your Fund's investment objectives.           
                       Your Fund's successful performance accounts, in part, 
for the AIM Summit Fund's growth in assets managed, from $765 million as the 
fiscal year opened to $1.05 billion as the fiscal year closed. Fund management 
recounts the decisions behind the year's performance in the discussion that 
begins on the following page.
  Indeed, the fiscal year ended October 31 was a remarkable period in the equity
markets. Yet we feel compelled to remind shareholders that market cycles come 
and go, and such performance as we have enjoyed in the past year is unlikely to 
continue uninterrupted. At any time, equity markets are subject to downward 
fluctuations and to shifts in the market sectors that are performing best.
  In an effort to take advantage of the growth opportunities offered by stocks, 
a long-term commitment such as a Summit Investors Plan employs consistent, 
uninterrupted investing, instead of attempts to time the market. Historically, 
equities have provided the best available long-term return on investment, and 
investors who have maintained a long-range perspective have the greatest
potential to reap significant rewards over time. Of course, dollar-cost
averaging does not assure a profit and does not protect against loss in
declining markets. And since dollar-cost averaging involves continuous investing
regardless of fluctuating securities prices, investors should consider their
ability to continue purchases over an extended period of time.
  Therefore, even as we relish the success of a good year, our focus is on the 
year ahead. AIM's disciplined earnings-driven strategy is an ongoing evaluation 
of market opportunity, and as the market continues to climb, our job becomes 
even more challenging.
  And, on a personal level, we all have good reason to look ahead. Clouds on the
horizon in the form of the budget debate over retirement benefits such as 
Medicare and Social Security programs only accentuate the need to build your own
retirement nest egg, independent of any benefits that may--or may not--be
available to you when the time comes. For many in the baby boomer generation,
that's just 10 years away.
  It is our hope that you continue to rely on AIM Summit Fund, Inc. to help you
build your financial future. As always, we are ready to respond to
your questions or comments about this report. Please call 800-995-4246 during 
normal business hours.

    ---------


The cover of Money magazine's November 1994 Forecast Issue read, "Make 12% or 
more in 1995". After the dismal stock market returns in 1994, 12% may have 
sounded like euphoria to some. Little did we know.
  Healthy corporate profits exceeded analysts' expectations and propelled stocks
through record highs in 1995. The strength was broad-based, resuscitating 
large-capitalization stocks, which had been out of favor for three years. The 
popular Dow Jones Industrial Average sailed past 4000 on February 23, 1995, and 
then topped 5000 on November 21.
  Spearheaded by the powerful technology stock advance, the broader NASDAQ
overtook its large-cap cousins in June of 1995 to finish the reporting period
well ahead of the pack.
  The stars of the technology group were inarguably the semiconductor stocks. As
of June 30, 1995, semiconductor stocks were up an astonishing 94% in just six
months, according to Barron's. Other technology sectors were also strong, such
as aerospace and defense, software, and industrial technology companies. Also
strong were beneficiaries of stable interest rates such as banks and thrifts,
and consumer cyclical stocks in airlines, leisure and recreation companies, and
restaurants.
  In September and October, the market took a well-deserved respite as concern
surfaced that third-quarter 1995 earnings reports, particularly in the
technology group, would fall below expectations. Some earnings disappointment
in big names such as Intel, Microsoft, Nokia, and IBM initiated profit-taking, 
which temporarily suspended the market's advance. Of the companies reporting 
earnings in the third quarter of 1995, I/B/E/S International Inc. reported in 
The Wall Street Journal that 55% were higher than analysts' expectations, with 
14% on target, and 31% below expectations. These results compared favorably with
second-quarter reports, of which 57% exceeded expectations and 30% were below 
target.
  With investor confidence renewed, at least for the near term, the market
gathered strength for its next advance. Focus turned from corporate earnings to
the growing gridlock in Congress over the proposals to balance the burgeoning
budget. The Federal Reserve Board declined to implement its much anticipated
interest rate cut pending some positive resolution to the budget debate.

YOUR INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
One quick glance at the Fund's top 10 holdings confirms a successful theme for 
AIM Summit Fund, Inc. during the reporting period. Certain technology companies,
which make up roughly 35% of the Fund's holdings, continue to offer outstanding 
value as expanding market penetration and product innovations have propelled 
many technology stocks to unprecedented levels.
  Near the end of the fiscal year, however, a reduced weighting in the 
technology sector was accomplished through the Fund's usual discipline of 
choosing equities to purchase or sell one stock at a time on the basis of 
reported earnings information. Because of lower-than-expected earnings reports 
from several technology companies, including Motorola and Silicon Graphics, Fund
management reduced or eliminated holdings of those stocks.
  In addition, the Fund's technology holdings migrated from makers of generic 
computer chips to companies that produce more sophisticated capital equipment 
such as Ultratech Stepper, Inc. A stepper is a machine that imprints circuits on
silicon wafers, and Ultratech's stepper is about half as expensive as rival 
machines.

                                                  Financials

  The Fund did not invest exclusively in technology companies, an advantage 
which improved the Fund's resilience to market pressures when the sector was 
periodically subject to profit-taking. The Fund's earnings-driven strategy 
uncovered value in two other key areas: health care and financial stocks.
  Three continuing profit drivers for the health-care sector seem to be: an 
aging baby-boomer population, improving cost containment, and anticipation of 
universal coverage for all. The Fund chose to address these themes by 
emphasizing those companies most likely to benefit from these trends. Nursing 
homes should service an increasing number of patients over time; and makers of 
medical instruments and devices help improve overall efficiencies for 
caregivers. Health maintenance organizations, hospitals; and medical services 
distributors are beginning to reap benefits from ongoing cost-containment 
campaigns.
  Firms that enhance productivity in this industry have produced especially 
attractive returns. For example, pharmaceutical advances and improved devices 
can lower the intrusiveness of medical procedures, thereby shortening the length
of hospital stays. The Fund holds several significant pharmaceutical firms, 
including Merck & Co., and Pfizer Inc.
  The financial sector has been enjoying the declining interest rates that have 
existed since the Federal Reserve Board completed its year-long run-up of 
short-term rates early in 1995. Non-bank financial companies have been 
especially attractive, including such brokerage/financial services firms as 
American Express and Dean Witter.
  The Fund also profited from certain special situations that arose during the 
fiscal year. As an owner of Chase Manhattan stock, your Fund benefited from the 
Chase-Chemical Bank merger, while a position in Cordis Corp. allowed the Fund to
benefit from that firm's takeover by Johnson & Johnson late in 1995.
  As of October 31, 1995, the Fund's diversified portfolio was composed of 233 
holdings. Of course, the portfolio's composition is subject to change, and there
is no guarantee the Fund will continue to hold any individual security.

OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE
At this writing, the market has surpassed the Dow 5000 level. Yet many analysts
maintain that this aging bull market--the Dow has gone a record 61 months
without experiencing a 10% correction--may have plenty of steam left. Barron's
recently reported analysts' estimates that projected the Dow well past 5500
during the coming year.
  Of course, a significant complement of market strategists also believe a 
correction is due.
  Rather than make any projections of future market performance, AIM remains 
committed to its disciplined investment strategy, which helps us determine, on a
company-by-company basis, which stocks to own and which to sell--without the 
guesswork of market timing.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FUND STRATEGY STRESSES DIVERSIFICATION

With 233 securities at the end of the fiscal year, AIM Summit Fund, Inc.'s 
portfolio suits AIM's model for a diversified equity portfolio. This 
diversification seeks to reduce investment risk. With many securities in a 
portfolio, if the performance of one holding lags, it has less impact on the 
performance of the portfolio as a whole.
  This diversification strategy enables Planholders to participate in all 
sectors of the stock market. AIM Summit Fund, Inc. invests primarily in:

* stocks of companies with a long-term record of growth; these tend to be large,
  well-established firms.

* stocks of small, emerging companies that show promise of future growth.

* stocks that are currently underpriced in the market and therefore have the 
  potential to realize significant capital appreciation.

  In addition, up to 20% of AIM Summit Fund's holdings may be foreign 
securities. This further diversifies the Fund into equity markets that sometimes
move in the opposite direction to the American stock market.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Octrober 31, 1995
 
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
AIM Summit Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is a Maryland corporation registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end
management investment company. The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial
statements.
A. Security Valuations - A security listed or traded on an exchange is valued
   at its last sales price on the exchange where the security is principally
   traded, or lacking any sales on a particular day, the security is valued at
   the mean between the closing bid and asked prices on that day. Each security
   traded in the over-the-counter market (but not including securities reported
   on the NASDAQ National Market System) is valued at the mean between the last
   bid and asked prices based upon quotes furnished by market makers for such
   securities. Each security reported on the NASDAQ National Market System is
   valued at the last sales price on the valuation date or absent a last sales
   price, at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices. Securities for which
   market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as
   determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Fund's officers
   in a manner specifically authorized by the Board of Directors of the Fund.
   Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity are valued at
   amortized cost which approximates market value.
B. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions - Securities
   transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or
   losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the
   securities sold. Interest income is recorded as earned from settlement date
   and is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income and distributions to
   shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
C. Federal Income Taxes - The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of
   the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment
   company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on
   otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gains) which is
   distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income
   taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
D. Equalization - The Fund follows the accounting practice known as
   equalization by which a portion of the proceeds from sales and costs of
   repurchases of Fund shares, equivalent on a per share basis to the amount of
   undistributed net investment income, is credited or charged to undistributed
   income when the transaction is recorded so that the undistributed net
   investment income per share is unaffected by sales or redemptions of Fund
   shares.
 
NOTE 2 - ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with A I M Advisors,
Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the advisory agreement, the Fund pays AIM a
fee at an annual rate of 1.0% of the first $10 million of the Fund's average
daily net assets, 0.75% of the next $140 million of the Fund's average daily
net assets and 0.625% of the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $150
million. Under the terms of a sub-advisory agreement between AIM and
NationsBank of Texas, N.A. ("NationsBank"), AIM pays NationsBank a fee at an
annual rate of 0.50% of the first $10 million of the Fund's average daily net
assets, 0.35% of the next $140 million of the Fund's average daily net assets,
0.225% of the next $550 million of the Fund's average daily net assets and
0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $700 million. These
agreements require AIM to reduce its fees or, if necessary, make payments to
the Fund to the extent required to satisfy any expense limitations imposed by
the securities laws or regulations thereunder of any state in which the Fund's
shares are qualified for sale.
 The Fund, pursuant to an administrative services agreement with AIM, has
agreed to reimburse AIM for certain costs incurred in providing accounting
services to the Fund. During the year ended October 31, 1995, the Fund
reimbursed AIM $60,994 for such services.
 During the year ended October 31, 1995, the Fund paid legal fees of $4,569 for
services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis, Nessen, Kamin & Frankel as
counsel to the Board of Directors. A member of that firm is a director of the
Fund.
 Substantially all shares of the Fund are held of record by State Street Bank &
Trust Company as custodian for Summit Investors Plans, a unit investment trust
that is sponsored by A I M Distributors, Inc. (an affiliated company of AIM).
Certain officers and directors of the Fund are officers of AIM and A I M
Distributors, Inc.
 
NOTE 3 - DIRECTORS' FEES
 
Directors' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each director who is
not an "interested person" of AIM. The Fund may invest directors' fees, if so
elected by a director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a deferred
compensation plan.

NOTE 4 - BANK BORROWINGS
 
The Fund has a $14,700,000 committed line of credit with a financial
institution syndicate with Chemical Bank of New York as the administrative
agent. Interest on borrowings under the line of credit is payable on maturity
or prepayment date. During the period July 20, 1995 (effective date of Credit
Agreement) through October 31, 1995, the Fund did not borrow under the line of
credit agreement. The Fund is charged a commitment fee, payable quarterly, at
the rate of 1/10 of 1% per annum on the unused balance of the Fund's
commitment.
 
NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES
 
The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term
securities) purchased and sold by the Fund during the year ended October 31,
1995, was $1,096,638,136 and $1,081,422,456, respectively.
 The amount of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment securities
as of October 31, 1995, on a tax basis, is as follows:

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
AIM Summit Fund, Inc.:
 
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the AIM
Summit Fund, Inc., including the schedule of investments, as of October 31,
1995, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the
statement of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period
then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the two-year
period then ended, the ten months ended October 31, 1993 and each of the years
in the seven-year period ended December 31, 1992. These financial statements
and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.
 We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
October 31, 1995, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
 In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AIM
Summit Fund, Inc. as of October 31, 1995, the results of its operations for the
year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the
two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years
in the two-year period then ended, the ten month period ended October 31, 1993
and each of the years in the seven-year period ended December 31, 1992, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
