A country like India that is home to ethnicities of various cultural diversities, has the highest proportion of the youth in its overall population. India's advantage of having a large population of youth presents a huge opportunity to the players in the education sector as well as scope to the government for development of this sector and consequently, the nation. A recent study has recognized the Indian education sector as a 'sunrise sector' for investments. The education market in India, which is presently worth around Rs 5.9 trillion ($ 92.98 billion), is poised for major growth in the near future. As by 2020, India will have the world's largest tertiary-age population and second largest graduate talent pipeline globally. Presently, higher education contributes 59.7 per cent of the market size. The higher education sector in India is poised for an average growth of 18 per cent per year till 2020. The education sector in India has earned global recognition from several quarters.
