Veranda Learning is giving its investors something new to look forward to. The company has decided to split its business into two parts by creating a new listed company called J.K. Shah Commerce Education Limited (JKSC). Every shareholder of Veranda will get one share of JKSC for every share they already own.
The idea is simple: the commerce education business is strong enough to stand on its own. By separating it, the new company will get more freedom to grow faster without carrying any debt. Veranda, on the other hand, will focus on its other education segments like schools, vocational training, and government test preparation.
The commerce arm is already a market leader. Brands like J.K. Shah Classes, BB Virtuals, and Navkar have trained thousands of Chartered Accountants and other professionals. The segment is expected to reach ₹344 crore in revenue by FY26, with profits also climbing.
There is a clear demand for finance and commerce professionals in India. More students are enrolling in these courses because the job market is expanding. Global Capability Centers are also hiring in large numbers, which means more opportunities for JKSC to grow.
For investors, this demerger is a way to benefit from two strong growth stories instead of just one. JKSC will be fully focused on commerce education, while Veranda will continue to build its presence in schools and vocational programs.
Once the approvals come through, shareholders will own two listed companies. Management believes this will unlock value and give investors more direct exposure to the booming education sector in India.
