These include the application of information and communications technology (ICT) in classrooms and the use of cloud-based platforms, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR). In 2021, the online education market was valued at INR 108.79 Bn. It is expected to reach INR 299.18 Bn by 2027, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of ~22.26% during the 2022 – 2027 period.

There is a lack of formal recognition as also inadequate digital infrastructure throughout the country.
