Layoff Indian city named · JobCuts desk · Reported
Adda247 is in the JobCuts.in record for job cuts dated Apr 30, 2026. The recorded figure is 200 people (20% of the workforce cited in the source). The location line we stored is Gurgaon. We marked this row as reported, not company-confirmed, until a spokesperson or filing matches the number.
Confirmation status: this is a sourced news record. The employer may not have published an official India or city headcount. Treat the figure as the best public number we have, and open the source.
Google-backed test-prep company Adda247 laid off approximately 200-220 employees, around 20% of a ~1,000-person workforce, at its Gurugram office on 30 April 2026. Reports said product, content, design and teaching staff were affected as the company cut costs ahead of a planned IPO. Treat the exact headcount as reported, not company-confirmed in this draft.
Edtech cost cuts continue in the NCR belt. Adda247's Gurugram round is a 20% shrink aimed at an IPO runway, not a shutdown.
Scope: the source names an Indian city (Gurgaon). The row is filed as a city record. The same source may still be describing a wider programme that happens to mention that campus.
The date or the wording looks like a year-end headcount line. At Indian IT services firms and banks, that is often twelve months of attrition, slower hiring, and exits added together. Read the source for “net” and “during the year” before describing it as one dismissal round.
The percentage belongs to whatever workforce the source defined: a team, a country, or the whole company. The people field and the percentage can describe different bases.
A company statement or filing that matches this people field is not in our file. The row stays labelled reported.
Naming Gurgaon does not confirm that every affected person sat in that city. Other campuses can belong to the same programme and go unnamed.
The pattern for EdTech is written once, on the sector page.
