Another user Shilpa S. Ranipeta who is is a correspondent at CNBCTVLIVE A new such story from Byjus every other day! Not to forget endless complaints from sales persons themselves on the insane pressure they’re put under. Question is, will any action be taken? We saw what happened when voices were raised against one of its acquired cos.

Nidhi again posted and said The sales guy of @BYJUS was calling me names. Saying he has already processed the admission and loan. The headoffice of@BYJUS has assured me this deal will be cancelled. I will update once this is done. The crying and haunted face of my poor househelp made me do this.
