After celebrating International Yoga Day and emphasizing the importance of balance in our journey from ₹0 to ₹1 Cr, we're excited to share the concrete progress we've made in building Shalyam, our comprehensive EdTech platform. This issue marks a significant milestone as we transition from planning to implementation, showcasing the robust learning management system that's now taking shape.
