KRG Data Research Foundation - Knowledge Hub
Research-Driven Excellence in Sustainable Education, Finance and Governance
Education is the foundation of a nation’s progress, shaping future generations with the knowledge, skills, and values needed to thrive in a dynamic world. Yet, India’s education system—despite its rich heritage and ongoing expansion—faces deep-rooted challenges in quality, employability, and financial governance. Rapid privatization and institutional growth have not been matched by transparent governance or industry-aligned training. Over 60% of schools still operate with outdated curricula (NITI Aayog, 2022), and just 48.7% of graduates are considered employable (India Skills Report, 2023), pointing to a systemic disconnect between education, accountability, and outcomes.
To address these critical gaps, KRG Data Research Foundation was established as a Section 8 not-for-profit institution, dedicated to advancing transparent, accountable, and sustainable education finance in India through evidence-based research, policy innovation, and capacity-building. By developing standardized audit frameworks, publishing impactful research, and empowering institutions with data-driven insights, KRG acts as a national catalyst—supporting regulators, education trusts, and colleges in building a future-ready, ethically governed education ecosystem
