"BYJU's Learning app has been delisted from Playstore because of non-payment to Amazon Web Services (AWS), which provides support to the app. Byju's business is now being managed by an Insolvency Resolution Professional who has to manage all payment-related issues as well," a source told PTI.

An email sent to Think and Learn's Insolvency Resolution Professional (IRP) Shailendra Ajmera did not elicit any reply.
"Apps, which are being handled by other vendors, are functional as of now," sources aware of the development said.
Byju's Premium Leaning app and Byju's Exam Prep app continue to be available on Google Playstore.
When contacted AWS spokesperson said, "AWS has been working with Think and Learn Private Limited since April 2024 to resolve its outstanding AWS account balance. We remain hopeful that this matter can be resolved. Separately, we are unable to comment on any actions taken by other technology providers with respect to the BYJU'S app."
Byju's Leaning App covered mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology for classes 4-12 and social studies for classes 6–8 as well. The app also provides preparation support for competitive exams like JEE, NEET, and IAS.
The app continues to be available on Apple's App Store.
The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal has started insolvency proceedings against Byju's on appeal by various investors, including lender-authorised agency Glas Trust.
