Akshay Tanna, Partner and Head of India Private Equity at KKR, said, “Lighthouse Learning has built one of India’s most trusted and respected education services platforms, combining academic quality with a strong brand reputation.”

Prajodh Rajan, Founder and Group CEO of Lighthouse Learning, said KKR’s long-term vision, global expertise and deep commitment to education would help the group scale further and set new benchmarks for excellence across the sector.
