The 11th-standard program is valued at ₹18.15 Crore for 3,000 students, while the 12th-standard program accounts for ₹17.60 Crore for 3,500 students. The engagement is set for an initial two-year term, with provisions for mutual annual extensions for up to two additional years.
Client Profile
MAHAJYOTI, or the Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Research and Training Institute, is an autonomous body under the Government of Maharashtra. Established to facilitate the socio-economic and educational upliftment of Other Backward Classes (OBC), Vimatka Jati and Nomadic Tribes (VJNT), and Special Backward Classes (SBC), the institute funds specialized training and research programs. By partnering with established educational providers, MAHAJYOTI aims to bridge the gap in access to high-quality competitive exam preparation for students from economically and socially marginalized backgrounds across the state of Maharashtra, ensuring geographic barriers do not hinder academic success.
Business Impact
This contract significantly bolsters Career Point Edutech's revenue visibility, as the ₹35.75 Crore order value represents nearly 70% of its TTM operating revenue of ₹51.23 Crore.

The milestone-linked payment structure ensures a steady cash flow over the two-year execution period.
