Where Nawabi Heritage Meets New India Aspirations

Where Are Lucknow's Children Going?
With only 4-5 IB schools for a 4M+ population, affluent families face limited options.
Oversubscribed Local Schools
Existing IB schools like CMS, Seth MR Jaipuria are severely oversubscribed with 1-2 year waitlists. Many families who want IB education are forced to compromise on CBSE alternatives.
Boarding in Delhi/Dehradun
Affluent families send children 500+ km away to Delhi, Dehradun, or Mussoorie boarding schools. Annual cost: ₹8-15 lakh while children grow up disconnected from family.
New Corridors Underserved
Gomti Nagar Extension, Shaheed Path, and Sushant Golf City have zero premium schools despite massive residential development. Families commute 45-60 minutes to established schools.
The New Lucknow Opportunity
Gomti Nagar Extension and Shaheed Path are witnessing explosive growth—thousands of premium apartments with zero nearby IB schools. A new school in these corridors captures a completely underserved market with minimal competition.
The UP Boarding Hub
Lucknow can serve as the boarding school hub for all of UP—Kanpur, Allahabad, Varanasi, Bareilly families seeking quality education in the state capital. This dramatically expands the addressable market beyond city limits.
The Central UP Catchment: 50+ Million Population
A boarding school in Lucknow can capture demand from across central UP—India's most populous region with the highest unmet demand for quality education. The catchment includes 20,000-25,000 HNI families currently sending children to Delhi or compromising on local options.
