Azent Overseas Education Ltd, an online education startup founded by IT firm Hexaware Technologies Ltd founder Atul Nishar said it has acquired Bengaluru-based AdmissionTable.com, an artificial intelligence (AI) driven online platform for overseas university selection and admission counselling. The deal is part of Azent’s larger plan to invest ₹250 crore in technological capabilities, services, acquisitions and infrastructure. The company did not disclose the deal value. “The acquisition of AdmissionTable.com would help us extend our reach beyond the tier-1 cities and establish a pan India presence. Further, we look to build 3-5 centres every year, which means we will have 15 offline centres by the end of three years. We also plan to expand our business to Gujarat and open another online centre in Mumbai,” said Nishar.
