      BYJU started a business based on unethical practices. The marketing team will convince you that your child is a nit wit and will remain so until you pay a hefty sum to buy their package. They would create a panic among the parents and took advantage of their concern about the future of their children. Such a model is not viable or sustainable in the long run. Byju looks inflated because of investor's money. BYJU had tremendous potential but it is a classic case of wrong priorities, too much greed and the blood sucking tendencies of the so called "Education Manager". These Education Managers would reach their sales target by hook or by crook. Such unethical practices could never thrive in India where the growing middle class is so very concerned about education. One day the bubble had to burst and it did. I think the common masses are happy today. Let this lesson be learnt: BE ETHICAL OR YOU WILL HAVE TO MEET WITH THE SAME FATE.

    Byju's spent more money on marketing than on improving its lessons. There has to be a balance.
    Furthermore, there are a lot of free educational materials available on the net. For example, Khan Academy; is run on grants, donations from large companies, and small donors, etc. I think someone should start an educational platform like Khan Academy focusing on Indian students' needs, including lessons in STEM. commerce, arts, and competitive exams. It can be funded by grants, donations by Indian billionaires, and small donors. It will level the playing field.

    The Indian Startup ecosystem is all about providing services, ed-tech, fin-tech, aggregators, shopping, delivery etc. These are not sustainable as their shelf life is short, new players will replace the old ones. We should now seriously look at Product based Startups for example mobile phones, televisions, electronics, automobile etc. Unfortunately right now it is China and Korea who is dominating this space around the world. Instead of assembling, we should look at innovation and creating a product recipe which is indigenous. Lack of access to Finance is a major reason for this.

They just overdid promotions and completely overestimated potential earnings. Companies like these are only looking to increase their valuations but have very little to absolutely no idea on becoming profitable. Their spending is far more than their earnings. They don't really have a clear plan, to make all the spending count and stay acquiring a loyal customer base. They usually don't know how to make that transition to cut down spending and increase profits. Since their business model lacks any clear plan to increase profits, every new business acquisition only increases their financial burden, but it doesn't really take them on the path of profitability.

    That sounds very stupid, why would I pay for three year upfront without trying the services. I asked him multiple times if he had monthly plan, where I pay only until I like the services. He declined. I refused to signup for this service.
    It saddened me to see that many parents fell for the this trap, and spent hard earned money on this scam.

But later I found that as my daughter got promoted Baiju's have to provide a secret code to open the videos for the new class. At the same time, the videos for the previous class will get blocked and will never be able to be accessed! By the time, my daughter has passed out of 10th Standard, there will be nothing left of the study material ! I wish they have disclosed this before hand. In that case, I would not have purchased it. I would have spent the money for purchasing Encyclopedia Britannica which would have been worth the investment as we could use it for eternity!
