About
Indian edtech giant Byju's announced on October 12, 2022, that it would lay off approximately 2,500 employees, representing 5% of its total workforce, across multiple departments. This significant restructuring, the company's second major round of job cuts in recent months, is part of a broader effort to improve finances and achieve profitability by the end of the financial year in March 2023. Amid a global market downturn that has delayed IPO plans, Byju's is also reducing its marketing budget, shifting focus from established Indian markets to more efficient growth and brand building overseas. The $22 billion-valued startup, which reported a substantial net loss, aims to balance its rapid revenue growth with sustainable operations, having recently moved to clear major acquisition-related debts.
