IAS coaching in Chennai, the Kurukshetra way

Kurukshetra IAS Academy is an IAS academy in Anna Nagar, Chennai that has prepared aspirants for the UPSC Civil Services, the Tamil Nadu state services and the uniformed services since 2016. Our motto — We Create Leaders — reflects how we teach: small batches, personal mentoring, and faculty who have worked inside government or reached the UPSC interview themselves.

What we coach for

  • UPSC Civil Services — IAS, IPS, IFS, IRS and other central services: Prelims, CSAT, Mains, Optional (Public Administration) and Interview.
  • TNPSC — Group 1, Group 2/2A and Group 4, in Tamil and English medium.
  • Uniformed services — CAPF (Assistant Commandant), CDS and NDA, guided by a former NSG commando.
  • SSC CGL — for central government Group B and C posts.

How we are different

Many coaching centres lecture to hundreds of students at a time. We keep every batch to not more than 25 students, test you after every class, evaluate your Mains answers in writing, and assign a mentor who follows your progress. One fee covers the whole course, with no separate charges for Paper 1 and Paper 2, and the Kurukshetra Foundation scholarships support aspirants who need financial help.

Learn from anywhere

Attend classes at our Anna Nagar campus — with Prabhakaran Hall, Shambu Hall, a library and the Malliga Ramaswamy Research Facility — at our Arcot (Ranipet) branch, or live online. Every class is recorded, and our daily current affairs and editorial analysis are free for everyone.
