India or Abroad is The Wrong Question

Deciding between study abroad vs India? This is one of the biggest decisions Indian students and parents face, and most people are asking the wrong question.

It's not whether India is better or abroad is better, it's what's better for you. Using real government data, we break down why 78% of Indian students who studied abroad between 2015-2019 came back unemployed, when a foreign degree is actually worth the ROI, and when staying in India for IIT, IIM or top NIT gives you better career outcomes.

We also cover how 2026 changes to Canada study permits, US visa rules and the weak rupee affect your study abroad budget and decision.

India is now the world's number one source of international students, with almost 1.8 million Indians studying abroad, but going in without a plan is a costly mistake. This video gives you a data-backed framework, not opinions, to make the right call for your career, salary and lifestyle.
