Physics Wallah is making profits at a time when literally almost all ed-tech startups are failing, because of the quality of its products (not just low pricing). Byju's & Unacademy products look fancy but lack a holistic ecosystem of products (lectures + assignments + doubt solving facility + test series) to crack a national level competitive exam. So even if you buy a course from Byju's/Unacademy, you still have to buy other products (like a proper scheduled test series) from other platforms, to crack the exam. But PW has all the products required for a test prep ecosystem platform. If you buy a PW course for a given exam, then you get access to all the resources you need on a single platform. Then the pricing comes into play.

3 entrepreneurial advice given by Aditya Sehgal in conversation with Shantanu Deshpande , on The Barbershop with Shantanu podcast :- 1. Until you start, it's zero. The faster you start, the faster you start your compounding journey. So, start your compounding journey early; don't aim for perfection. 2. When needed pivot as soon as possible BUT always with the goal in mind and be sure what that goal is. 3. While starting, rather than asking can I climb that ladder, ask am I climbing the right ladder, which wall is this ladder leaning against; don’t build it for next 5 years, build it for the next 100 years & the way to do that is not to worry about your exit, not to worry about short term success, you need to create something that is going to be true and enduring value.  https://youtu.be/tJ0e0U-HVAE  #podcast
