Geeklurn Edutech services Private limited - I become a victim of their cheating and fraudulent scheme and GeekLurn mislead with ZeroCostStudy ad

Respected Sir/Madam,
Voxya Team,

I Santosh Biradar, resident of Chakan Pune aged **. I am reaching out to you today to share a distressing incident and seek your support. I have been a victim of fraudulent activities perpetrated by Mr. Kamalapuram Srinivas Kalyan and Mr. Aman Mishra, the Founders and Head of Operations of Geeklurn Edutech Pvt Ltd on the name of IBM and NASSCOM. I am determined to hold them accountable for their actions. There are other core members in their team who had cheated me, Mithun Muralidhar, Praveen, Swati and Svetlana Jain. In June ****, I joined Geeklurn based on their promise of zero-cost education in Data Science. However, they misled me into taking a loan of INR ***,*** from <FinancePartner> Credenc Web Technologies Pvt Ltd (NBFC - Aditya Birla Finance Limited) as they purposefully did not prepare the tripartite agreement. Geeklurn team committed that they will be paying our monthly EMI of INR ***** to us for next ** months. 

Now they broke their commitment and agreement by saying they'll not be paying any EMI further.

Geeklurn is not following through with this commitment. They provided EMI till February **** and April ****, but now they are saying that they will not pay the monthly EMI. As per the agreement, they have to make payments till ** months but they took loan on our name and not completed syllabus their classes and contact numbers. 

They had cheated us badly and we are now trapped.

Meanwhile, since last * months or so they are defaulting on their basic services i.e. not providing resolution to our queries for our study part. They are not picking up our calls nor responding to our emails for any of our queries nor giving us the money as per their commitments. I have been mentally disturbed and harassed by these people. I am the only earning member of in my house and I am feeling serious pressure for maintaining my livelihood. I have asked them several times to cancel the course, but no one is responding. They have not provided what they promised, and they have cheated us.

Furthermore, I have learned that this scam is not isolated and that Geeklurn Edutech Pvt Ltd may have cheated more than **** students and has a scam of crores rupees.

 Their old office address was #***, DBS Business Center DBS House, **, Cunningham Road Bengaluru Karnataka-******, and their new office address is IndiQube, South Summit, *st Floor, S End RD, Vijayarangam Layout, Jayanagar, Bengaluru Karnataka-******.

I also want to highlight the fact that I have brought up these concerns with both Geeklurn Edutech Pvt Ltd and <Finance Partner> regarding the loan disbursement and EMI collection process. I asked them if it is an educational loan why they have not included Geeklurn as party. Also, if this was educational loan, even before the completion of the course, they started collecting EMIs from us on the very first month of joining. Moreover, the loan was disbursed to a third-party account, which is not permitted under RBI guidelines without including them as a party for personal loans. When I asked them to clarify this, they were unable to provide me with any satisfactory explanation.

This further supports my belief that there has been a serious scam committed by Geeklurn Edutech Pvt Ltd and its Founders, Mr. Kamalapuram Srinivas Kalyan and their teammates and they should be held accountable for their actions. I urge you to take strict action against them and ensure that justice is served. Thank you for your attention to this matter..

I have added the relevant documents as a proof, hope it will help in cancelling my loan.

Sincerely,,
Signature: Santosh Biradar
