How our fees compare
In October 2026, online chess academies in India published group prices of about ₹300–560 a class, often for batches of 6 to 12. Ours are ₹380–₹500 a class for batches of 4–6, taught by a FIDE-rated coach, with a free weekend tournament or chess event every week on top. Large 1:1 maths platforms charge about ₹720–1,060 a class with GST; ours is ₹391–₹562. And there's no 6- or 12-month package to sign up for: every plan is monthly.
