Kolkata Airport makes history by welcoming first Giant Airbus Beluga XL
Byju Raveendran, the founder of India's leading edtech giant, Byju's, has taken a significant step to alleviate a cash crunch by pledging his own home and those owned by his family members. The collateral, including two family homes in Bengaluru and his under-construction villa in the upscale Epsilon gated community, has been offered to secure a $12 million loan, as confirmed by sources familiar with the matter.
The borrowed funds were utilized to meet salary commitments for 15,000 employees in Byju's parent firm, Think & Learn Pvt., on Monday, addressing the financial challenges faced by the company.
