Bengaluru, India|July 9, 2025: Hello Kids, India’s pioneering early childhood education brand, has disrupted the preschool sector by becoming the country’s largest ‘No Royalty’ preschool chain. With over 1030 centers across 25+ states, the brand is making early education more accessible and affordable for both parents and aspiring edupreneurs.

At the heart of Hello Kids’ success lies its revolutionary zero-royalty franchise model, which enables individuals to start and operate preschools without the burden of ongoing royalty fees. This model has empowered hundreds of passionate educators and first-time entrepreneurs to launch preschools with minimal investment, significantly lowering the entry barrier in the education sector.

“Our mission has always been to democratize early childhood education in India,” said Mr. Pritam Kumar Agrawal, Founder and Director of Hello Kids. “Through the ‘No Royalty’ model, we are not only reducing the cost of entry for our partners, but also enabling a new generation of educators to make a meaningful impact in their communities.”

Hello Kids was established with the vision to blend global teaching practices with Indian values. Its child-centric curriculum combines the strengths of Montessori, Playway, and Gurukul methodologies, offering a well-rounded learning experience for children aged 1.5 to 6 years. The curriculum emphasizes not just academics, but also life skills, creative expression, and cultural grounding.

In addition to academic excellence, Hello Kids provides extensive support to its partners—from center setup and teacher training to branding, marketing, and digital resources. The curriculum is fully aligned with India’s National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, ensuring relevance and future-readiness.

The model has been especially impactful in Tier II and Tier III cities, where access to quality early education is often limited. By enabling preschools in smaller towns and semi-urban areas, Hello Kids is bridging a crucial gap in India’s educational landscape.

“We’re not just opening schools, we’re building a national movement that puts affordable, quality early education within reach for every child,” added Mr. Agrawal. “Our approach proves that education can be both impactful and inclusive.” With its innovative business model and unwavering focus on quality, Hello Kids continues to transform India’s preschool ecosystem empowering edupreneurs, delighting parents, and inspiring young learners across the country.

Kalyan, Maharashtra, 3rd July, 2025: Harsh Gupta, a 19-year-old student from Kalyan, has secured admission to the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Roorkee, defying extreme financial hardship, academic setbacks, and a debilitating medical condition. His journey reflects not only his resilience but also the transformative role played by Motion Education, Kota, in nurturing talent from underprivileged backgrounds.

Harsh comes from a modest background, his father is a roadside pani puri vendor and the family of six resides in a small two-room chawl in Thane district. With limited resources and little exposure to competitive exams, Harsh first learned about IITs only after completing his Class 10 board exams during the COVID-19 pandemic. By the time he joined Motion Education, the Class 11 syllabus was nearly complete, and he struggled to catch up academically.

Despite his efforts, he failed his Class 11 exams a setback that led to criticism from relatives and self-doubt within the family. However, Motion Education stood by him, providing structured academic support and personal mentorship to help him reset and rebuild.

In the midst of his preparation, Harsh was diagnosed with Rectal Prolapse, a painful and recurring medical condition. This significantly disrupted his studies, requiring repeated hospital visits and extended rest periods. Even during these difficult times, Motion’s faculty, particularly RRD Sir, Head of the JEE Division, offered unwavering emotional and academic guidance.

Despite his health and personal loss, including the passing of close relatives just before major exams, Harsh remained focused. In his second attempt at JEE Advanced, after taking a drop year and re-enrolling at Motion Education, he achieved success and earned admission to IIT Roorkee. He had also scored 98.9 percentile in JEE Main.

“There were moments when I was physically and emotionally exhausted. But Motion never gave up on me. They believed in me even when I lost belief in myself,” said Harsh. His story is a powerful example of Motion Education’s student-first approach and its mission to support aspirants from all walks of life not just academically, but holistically.

Led by renowned educator NV Sir (Nitin Vijay), Motion Education has once again reaffirmed its leadership in competitive exam preparation with outstanding results in JEE Advanced 2025. Showcasing academic excellence at the highest level, 6 Motion students secured ranks within the Top 100, 23 featured in the Top 500, and 47 achieved ranks within the Top 1000—a powerful testament to the institute’s focused pedagogy, expert mentorship, and student-first approach.

Of the 6,332 Motion students who appeared for the exam, 3,231 qualified, resulting in a qualifying ratio of 51.02%—more than double the national average. This compares sharply with the national statistics: out of approximately 1.9 lakh students, only 45,000 (23.68%) qualified.

These exceptional outcomes highlight Motion Education’s robust academic ecosystem and its commitment to setting new standards in the coaching industry.

27 May, 2025, Bengaluru: 

“If you want to be a good scholar, you need to be an engaged one”, said Professor Rishikesha T Krishnan, Director, IIM Bangalore, while addressing participants of the Summer Research Methodology Workshop 2025 at IIM Bangalore, hosted by the Office of Research and Publications (R&P) from 19^th May 2025. The workshop concluded earlier today with the Editors’ Panel and valediction. Altogether 97 candidates from across India, including faculty and PhD students from other Indian Institutes of Management, took part in this workshop. Around 12 IIMB faculty members, who are well published in their respective domains, were involved with the workshop.

Providing valuable insights on ‘Research Leadership’ during the valediction, Professor RT Krishnan listed rigor, insight and relevance as the essential criteria for engaged scholarship. “However, the outcome of all this should be impact; you need to figure out how to extend the benefit of your research beyond academic journals. If you are smart in designing your research, you can take the outcome of your research in different directions to benefit academia, industry, policy making, and more.”

He quoted from papers co-authored by IIMB faculty and Doctoral scholars to explain the model of engaged scholarship further, adding, “To make research more impactful, you have to find interesting problems and provide unique solutions for the same. In India, the different and unique phenomena going around us give us a plethora of ideas to work on our research and publish in top journals. Working in the sustainability domain has also become crucial.”

He summed up his talk listing how to draw an action plan to be successful and impactful in research. “Remember that being a scholar is akin to a marathon, not a sprint, where personal vision as well as aspiration, focus, strategic intent and research plan are vital. View yourself as more than just a teacher – but as an engaged scholar. Benchmark yourself against the best in the world. Be committed to continuous improvement and embrace new technology as well as pedagogy. Manage time judiciously – try to align teaching, research and writing. This should be your individual agenda as a scholar.” He also explained the importance of personal effectiveness adding, “Prioritize and put first things first.”

“As an outstanding teacher, as a rigorous researcher, through contribution to practice, and sometimes through all three, can you be truly impactful. Become experts in your domains, an expert in an emerging method or approach, identify or build a unique dataset and then mine it. Develop a knack to identify interesting problems across domains and ways of addressing them.” He concluded by telling the participants that the best return gift they could give to IIMB faculty engaged in this workshop was to practise all that they have learnt in the workshop.
