Bansal Classes has expanded significantly beyond its original Kota base. They now have many branches across India. Each branch tries to replicate the teaching quality, infrastructure, and course offerings of the flagship center, but there are variations depending on the city, facilities, faculty availability, and student demand.
Below are some major branches, especially those relevant to Uttarakhand / nearby, and what you can expect in each.
Here are some of the key Bansal Classes branches, followed by local ones (including Dehradun) with details.
| Kota, Rajasthan (Flagship centre) | Bansal Tower, A-10, Road No.1, IPIA, Kota, Rajasthan. courses (2-year, 1-year, droppers etc.) are run here. High competition, good peer group. | ||
| Aligarh, Akola, etc. | Mentioned among “offline centres” on the Bansal Classes website as “We’re Now in Your City – Visit Our Nearest Centres!” includes many cities including Aligarh, Akola. | These are smaller branches compared to Kota. They offer core coaching for IIT-JEE / NEET, perhaps not all courses that Kota has. Quality of infrastructure and faculty may vary. Good option if you are local and cannot relocate. | |
| Chandigarh | Sector 34A, Chandigarh. | Newer branch. The branch offers both offline + onsite / online modes. It seems fees are quite high here (approaching or exceeding what Kota charges for comparable courses) which shows they try to replicate premium offerings. Students report rigorous testing, experienced faculty, but some concerns about pace and coverage in new branches. | |
| Dehradun (Uttarakhand) | Several centres: Rajpur Road (Above Anandam Sweets, Bhel Chowk); GMS Road (MD Tower, near EPF Office); Jogiwala (Ring Road, Above ICICI Bank). | These branches aim to offer the “Kota standard” in your own city. They have the usual IIT-JEE & NEET courses, plus foundation / pre-foundation for classes VIII-X etc. Infrastructure is newer; likely smaller classroom sizes; fewer hostel facilities (many students stay locally); possibly fewer “dropper”-specialized courses but full test series, doubt sessions, etc. They're helpful for students who don’t want to move far. | |
| Other Dehradun specific locations | Bansal Classes, Subhash Road, Dehradun — Anand Tower, behind gate of St. Joseph Academy. | Bansal Classes, Ballupur (Chakrata Road), Dehradun — Opposite Annandam Sweets. | These are more like tutorial-centres / local branches. They handle major competitive exam coaching, with mock tests, doubt classes, etc. Might have limited batches, potentially less of the extra amenities (like fully residential options) compared to Kota. But very accessible. |
Here are typical differences you should check/expect when comparing branches:
| Local / Dehradun / Small BranchFlagship / Kota / Older Big Branch | |
| Pros: Easier to commute; lower accommodation/living costs; less disruption to personal life; maybe more personal attention. | Pros: Top infrastructure; more experienced senior faculty; extremely competitive peer group; standardized full offerings; often better track record / recognition. |
| Cons: Possibly fewer course options; less experienced senior faculty; fewer hostel or 24-hour facilities; possibly slower pace or less rigorous in newer branches. | Cons: Higher cost; might require relocation; more pressure; sometimes less individual attention (because very large batches). |
