It's quite unbelievable how much he raised for Unacademy in the bull market and then now is fully committed behind Airlearn which is a much smaller startup in a way

That's why I never took any coaching. Even most physical coaching feels scam.

Not true. It’s a noble business made messy by VCs and founders who took too much money sadly. But the founders always had noble vision

Remember one thing , most VC backed startups exist only for founders to make money ; as an employee if one is hoping to make money and career in VC backed startups ; then that’s gonna be a rare case

Unacademy has in total raised nearly 900 million dollars and has current market valuation of just 800 million dollar.

Liquidation preference clause will ensure that founders won't get exit and hence this move is quite expected as Founders are not going to gain anything .

Same goes for Bhavish Agarwal who has raised more than 5 billion dollar in Ola cab service while it's valuation is only 2 billion dollar. Liquidity preference me ch**iya Kat jaaega Bhavish ka. Hence he is diverting his attention to Ola electric and Krutim

I remember once they told me while enrolling for my brother, when they reduce course of 40k to 12k in 10 days, The education fees of coaching is like flight prices, we might increase or decrease.

I remember fee change on a year basis but how come in 10 days.

I never like strategy of unacademy. 🤑🤮
