Unacademy has about Rs 400 crore in topline, per co-founder Gaurav Munjal, as he moves from CEO to Executive Chairman. Chief business officer Akhilendra Kumar, with the company for nearly five years, becomes CEO. Munjal will stay involved in daily operations and help with the upGrad IPO. The change comes after upGrad acquired Unacademy in September 2026 in an all-stock deal valued at just over $200 million.
