Formal education in India is still based on the traditional methods of brick and mortar classes which require students to attend full time schools and colleges to complete their education. While this method is amongst the commonly accepted mode of education across the world, the education fraternity has now opened up to adopting e-learning methods. According to a recent research conducted by KPMG along with insights from Google search, India’s e-learning space was $247 million, comprising 1.6 million users in 2016. However, with the increased adoption of online learning, this market size is likely to grow eight-folds to $1.96 billion and the user base is expected to grow six times to 9.6 million users by 2021.
