Avanti Gurukul

Avanti was started by two friends from IIT Bombay – Krishna Ramkumar and Akshay Saxena with the support of the Pan-IIT alumni organization. Both came from successful corporate careers; Krishna a former gold-medalist at IIT Bombay and Akshay fresh from the MBA program at the Harvard Business School and a career in Silicon Valley. The goal was straight-forward – to give every student the opportunity to study at India’s best colleges.
