About

DUX Education, a K-12 edtech startup based in Bengaluru, is ceasing all operations by April 2023 due to an inability to secure funding amid the ongoing investment crunch in India's startup ecosystem. The company, which had a team of nine employees managing over 250 online batches, will wind down after completing the academic year through March. Founded in 2020, DUX served more than 15,000 students with curriculum-based online classes but ultimately could not sustain itself without fresh capital, joining a growing list of edtech closures and layoffs across the industry.
