The growing emphasis on upskilling and the integration of artificial intelligence across academic programmes are driving strong demand in the higher education sector, according to Sanjay Salunkhe, Chairman and Managing Director of Jaro Education. Speaking to NDTV Profit, he said 35-40% of the company's programmes now have an AI interface, while rising enrolments, strong referral-led growth and increasing demand from rural India are expected to support around 30% growth in both revenue and Ebitda in FY27.
