PW’s total expenses grew to Rs 777 crore in FY23 from Rs 103 crore a year earlier.
The employee costs grew to Rs 406 crore (including ESOP benefits, which was zero in FY22) from Rs 42 crore last year.

“Our online categories grew to 2.5x in terms of students headcount from 9 lakh in FY22 to 23.5 lakh in FY23 while our offline student headcount grew to 5.5x touching 60,000 enrolments in FY23,” said PW’s Co-founder Prateek Maheshwari.
“We will keep investing in more categories -- across study abroad, PG test prep, skills, foundation -- applying a similar formula of community, quality, and affordability, to remain in a hyper-growth phase,” he added.
PW had raised $100 million during the financial year 2023 and entered into eight partnerships in FY23, all profitable in themselves.
“The inorganic revenue of the order of Rs 500 crore shall reflect in the FY24 financials through these M&A made in FY23,” said the company.

“We will continue to plough back all the free cash flows generated by the business back into it to serve more students - touch more lives -- transform more families,” said PW’s Founder and CEO, Alakh Pandey.
