From teaching a stadium of students a few years ago to owning Byju's, founder Byju Raveendran & his wife Divya Gokulnath have come a long way. But now, be it layoffs, problems in revenue recognition, scrutiny over aggressive sales, or mounting losses, Byju's is dousing one fire after another. Here's a comprehensive account of how Byju's stunning rise followed by the cracks and why its survival is crucial for the Indian startup ecosystem.

Their Marketing and sales tactics has ruined their brand for the long term

[mithunmahato]

The point is NO tech is involved in EdTech !

[mnd]

Byjus will go down as failure...They are focused on branding and marketing than the quality of content they are selling

[arcskill]

It's incorrect to say that fall for Byjus would spell.doom for India's edTech sector. All that's going to happen is that the funding would be less and only those businesses can survive who have a real revenue generating system. Working on funding based on inflated valuations is not going to work. Those days are long gone.

This company should banned in order to retain Indian talent 🚫👎❌👎

[rrajan]

Our parents so much psyched that they would even put their children in " non-existing' univs.
It's a pity!
Making elementary children to learn coding is the epitome of greed!

[jonam]

More is expected of Moneycontrol. You missed the most important point. Did you actually speak to any parents who are Byju customers? You will find more disgruntled clients than otherwise. Poor quality teachers, poorer quality teaching. If product is weak, no Shah Rukh or Messi can save the company.

Greed, focus only on getting rich quick.
Idea was good, delivery was flawed.

Every startup of India is a scam.. look at snapdeal, mobiquick, Oyo, Zomato, paytm, etc etc...

Loss kar kar ke dusaro ko loss ko sale kar rahe h...aur last me bank se paisa lege... ultimately paisa kha jayege...
