India’s Unacademy sells to rival upGrad for $206M, about 94% less than its peak valuation

Unacademy, once one of India’s most valuable edtech startups, has been acquired by rival upGrad at a valuation of just over $200 million, about 94% less than its 2021 peak valuation.

The all-stock deal values Unacademy at ₹19.55 billion (about $206 million), upGrad’s co-founder and chairperson Ronnie Screwvala told TechCrunch. Unacademy shareholders are receiving upGrad shares as part of the transaction, while angel investors were cashed out at closing, Screwvala said.
