Speaking to FE, Deepak Mehrotra, CEO & MD, AESL, said that the company had developed an online platform back in 2020.

However, after Byju's acquired Aakash in 2021, the platform was merged with the former's digital operations.

With the planned merger between Byju's and AESL falling through towards the end of 2023, Aakash regained control of its digital platform and began beta testing, which continued for about 18 months.
