Rajnish Kumar, Mohandas Pai to discontinue as Byju's advisors

Former SBI chairman Rajnish Kumar and ex-Infosys chief financial officer Mohandas Pai have decided to discontinue as members of Think & Learn's advisory council after a discussion with the founders, the edtech firm said on Sunday.

Raveendran Byju, the founder of Think & Learn which owns the Byju's brand, blamed a few foreign investors for delaying the company's revival, which included restructuring of the board, delay in financial results and resolving liquidity crisis by opposing the USD 200 million rights issue.

Think & Learn formed the advisory council in July 2023 to mentor and advise the edtech firm to come out of the crisis and improve governance.
