Ahaguru bags funding from Anand Mahindra's family office
Ahaguru Education Technology has announced to raise a Series A funding round led by the family office of Anand Mahindra, chairman of Mahindra Group.
Ahaguru co-founder Balaji Sampath said in a statement that the company will use the funds to launch new courses and upgrade its technology by investing in artificial intelligence (AI) to personalize learning experience for each student. He did not disclose the financial details of the transaction. The investment will also help the company add more teachers to its platform.

Mahindra said in the statement that Ahaguru is making learning easier and understandable by deploying well-researched techniques.
