With the current momentum of 50% growth in enrolments over last year, we look forward to add a million new subscribers during the current fiscal, in the non-government sector.”
As on 14th August 2021, the total number of subscribers is 44.80 million and the total assets under management (AUM) are ₹6.37 trillion.
