The funding from the Gujarat NGO comes as a CCD (compulsorily convertible debenture) for Techmaghi, which functions at the Maker Village at KINFRA Hightech Park in Kalamassery, located about 20 km north of the city, the statement said.

Launched in 2021 with a modest 30-member team, Techmaghi is today a leading education provider, having trained more than 75,000 students, generating revenue of more than Rs 2 crore, it said.

The company's primary focus lies in the core engineering fields, equipping individuals with the skills and knowledge necessary to excel in competitive job market. “We attribute much of our success to the support of KSUM,” added Rajan.

KSUM is Kerala government's nodal agency established in 2006 for entrepreneurship development and incubation activities in the state, the statement added.
