What it does
upGrad operates an online higher-education and professional-upskilling platform offering degree programs, certifications and corporate training, monetizing through program fees and enterprise learning contracts. The company turned EBITDA-positive with about Rs 56.9 crore in EBITDA on revenue of roughly Rs 1,531.7 crore, and is in the process of acquiring rival Unacademy in an all-stock deal to combine K-12, professional and lifelong-learning offerings.

Competes with Byju's (now in insolvency proceedings), Physics Wallah (already listed) and global players like Coursera in Indian online education; the pending Unacademy acquisition would combine two of the sector's largest brands.

Private-market context
Unlisted; recently raised Rs 361 crore led by chairman Ronnie Screwvala himself; pursuing an all-stock acquisition of Unacademy that received Competition Commission of India approval in July 2026; industry watchers view the deal as a scale-up step ahead of a possible future listing
What to understand before investing
- Unlisted shares can be difficult to sell. There may be no continuous market and no guaranteed buyer at the price you see.
- Any price shown here is an indicative private-market reference, not an exchange quote and not an executable price.
- An expected IPO may be delayed, repriced or never happen at all.
- A good company can still be a poor investment at the wrong valuation.
