NEXT?

you wish to take, you will see that on the right side, there is

Not a problem, all you have to do
is clear the cache and cookies from the history panel of your

WHAT IF I WISH TO DISCONTINUE THE COURSE?
No-Questions-Asked Refund Policy: For courses below Rs
8000, you can avail a refund within 24 hours, and for higher
value courses, you may do so within 72 hours. Please note, in
certain courses, the refund policy may differ. Do refer to the
refund policy on the specific course page to be certain.
CAN
I SHARE MY CREDENTIALS WITH A FRIEND/ FAMILY MEMBER?
We have a strict no-sharing policy. Just like in a physical
classroom where you would purchase a course for yourself alone,
the courses we offer work exactly the same way. You may use
multiple devices to access your course, however, our technical
team keeps a strict vigilance, and if any misconduct is found
we take strict action - starting with membership cancellation,
raising a police report, claim for potential damages and
whatever else our legal team deems fit.
Each video seen by a student is uniquely watermarked with identifying user data including user ID, IP etc at many places in both visible and invisible format. Therefore, our tech team is effectively able to track down users that are abusing the system and in breach of terms of service. In several cases which are under police investigation, it was found that the person with whom the account is shared is more likely to engage in illegal copyright infringement of video sharing. However, this happens at the initiator's (original buyer's) expense since as the purchaser of the services, he is liable for upholding the terms of services. The person who shared or bought would most likely be not able to join any Government job. Therefore, we strictly advise against sharing your account even with close friends and family members.

HOW
DO LIVE CLASSES WORK?
Our extensive technical set up
including special cameras and microphones in actual classrooms
combined with an internet connection help us stream classes
live to you through our platform.
WHAT
IF I MISS A CLASS?
All classes can be accessed
unlimited times within your course validity. So, you can catch
up on a missed class, or simply revise by viewing same classes
multiple times. There is no restriction. So you never miss a
class again.
