topCATcoaching.com launched to help IIM aspirants prepare for CAT online
09 July, 2009
Delhi-based Prism Education has launched topCATcoaching.com, an online education portal that aims to provide tutoring, study material, practice tests and doubt answering facility online for CAT (Common Admission Test), an entrance exam conducted by IIMs for their flagship 2-year MBA course.
Manish Gulati, founder and CEO, Prism Education, has said, “As topCATcoaching.com courses are available online, it is accessible to aspirants in small towns and cities where aspirants have to struggle to get quality and economical coaching to compete with aspirants from Tier-A towns. With the help of technology, top faculty and economical courses, we intend to bring more deserving aspirants to premier management institutes.”
Vivek Gupta, co-founder and business head, topCATcoaching.com, has added, “IIMs have announced that CAT is going to be conducted on computer this year. Over 4 lakh candidates are expected to take this exam. This makes it necessary for CAT aspirants to practice on computer. We believe that topCATcoaching.com has necessary resources to help its registered users crack the prestigious exam.”
"
One can’t keep on doing the same stuff over and over again across all kinds of brands. Every brand has a unique feature and this needs to be attributed through innovative marketing initiatives. Unless the people working in this medium can innovate, spends will not grow on internet. "
I have serious doubts. One of the co founders Vivek was responsible for studyplaces miserable performance. Anyway I wish him success this time.
wow site is too good. I found questions quite challenging.
Hey Manish,
Good work on the site, displays your sharp attention to detail, even minor things have been done first time right. Excellent Job!
I'm from Bangalore and have taken the free mock CAT test available on the site. Good presentation and challenging questions. A must, since this year on CAT is going online!!

Congrats Sir,
We are proud to be associated with you as publisher of your books. Your vision of taking CAT coaching to every corner of India seems to get fulfilled through www.topCATcoaching.com
Dear Asian Publications,
As of today, topCATcoaching.com is not doing any kind of business with Asian Publications. You are mistaken. However contact us at sales@topcoaching.com if you have such a desire.
Very good product and vision. All the best to you guys.
Awesome Site!!!
Its all in the execution process. Kudos to you.
This is a good move by Prism infotech. however, the success of this largely depends on the revenue model. the CAT content has now become very good through lot many coaching institutes and hence i dont see content as a differentiator. it will be mainly the accessibility and the revenue model which will make the difference
Awesome site & great content.
Manish, I guess I'm the first student of topCATcoaching.com.

Student-IIMA
Yes Puneet, you are our one early students, your feedback helped us improve quality of mock tests during beta testing of the online courses. I am glad to see you made it to IIM-A by securing 99.73 percentile. Good luck and dont forget to mentor new aspirants by participating in our discussion forums.

Manish/Vivek
The product looks very good both in terms of technology and content. You have got a great team.
Hi Manish .... well done indeed and you must be feeling proud of being an entrepreneur with a successful launch ...... a journey well begun and I am sure you will do a great job .... all the best!
Hi Manish
Congratulations !! Finally you did make it happen. A technocrat can also launch a business product. Of course, you also did that previously. I think topCATcoaching is a fantastic product, great design and quality content.
we are looking forward to see more happenings from Prism Education.
All the best.
I really like the site. Most websites and aspirants neglect the GK portion which is required for quite a few exams. The details given on the TopCatCoaching are awesome.

I thought Apoorv Kumar was handling Shiksha @ Naukri. He was biz head.. right .. Manish can you please clarify ..
Apurva and I were together as a team working on Shiksha and Yes, he was the Business Head.
Suggests tieups with sites like ManagementParadise.com ;)
Hey Congrats Vivek!! You are the best Quant guy I know, along with Vijay Jha, so students will benefit in a huge manner from this venture of yours...
Congrats Manish!!! Its a great effort. Keep up the good work and the momentum.
congratulations on the new site, great work.
Badhai ho Vivek. I saw ur name and photo. So finally u got into something which u always wanted,I am sure www.topCATcoaching.com would solve the problem of thousand of candidates.
Hey Vivek,
Congrats. So you are now officially an entrepreneur from our batch, I guess 5th from 2004 batch. Welcome to the club.
Hey ... .
Looks cool ... Great work

Thanks Info for the good feedback.
The first option is certainly true, I am extremely fast. I run Marathons too. My best time is 3 hr 45 mins for 42.2 Kms :-)
Hey Manish... good job done on design & product site. You didn't commented on the second part. I think you are a smart guy, but you can't plan and deliver a site like this in 6 months time. Specially when you launch a quality site. Either you have a huge design & development team or you are doing this from long back. Don't take my comments personally, it's just my views. Keep up the good work.
Info, I personally believe and have proven Internet sites can be delivered in 4-5 months. I do have a experienced, passionate and hardworking team of 32 people (fulltime + Part-time). I dont wish to spark debate but there are software development methodologies which facilitate quick launches viz. SCRUM etc. So trust me, a site like this can be launched in 6 months (180 days) by passionate and experienced professionals. Even I took same time for Shiksha.com was launched in 6-7 months from a public company. Hence my point is proven. Lets enjoy this good moment my friend!!!
Fantastic. Letting you go must be a huge loss for Infoedge. Somebody who can deliver a site like this in 1 quarters is hard to get.
Sigh of relief...I m off for a party now...stay in touch manish@topcoaching.com
Hey.. Manish Gulati is a X-Info Edge (naukri group). According to the info i have, he is the same guy who has done shiksha. And shiksha is a year old site. Either is very fast or extremely smart to plan this while working. Both sites are in education domain... can't be a coincident. Anyway a good job done by him on both the ventures. I wish him good luck.
Site looks professional and good. I am not a student but i liked the neatness. It's nicely done, best in it's space. Though the inner, login pages could have been better when you compared with the homepage(landing). But still kudos to the team.
gr8 news!!! excellent oportunity for those students who unable to pay a huge amount to useless coaching centers. the main concept is to provide the best education in the industry thats y they laed in the market... congrats once again....
This is what CAT aspirants are looking for.
Wow!!!thats wat I was lookin for..Presentation of site is just too good..everything so crisp and clear..
Indeed a useful product. I think there are already 1-2 players in the market, now there will be tough competition. The first impression of the site is good.
