Embattled edtech unicorn Byju's filed its FY22 financials with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs on January 23, almost 22 months after the reporting period ended

Embattled edtech firm Byju’s is in talks with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to settle its unpaid sponsorship dues of Rs 158 crore, and the two sides have a 'directional agreement' on a payment plan over the next six to eight months, a top Byju’s executive told Moneycontrol.

“Broadly, we are in conversations with the BCCI. There is a directional agreement on a payment plan that both parties have sort of agreed to which is what we will now work towards. We will be able to make those payments over the next six to eight months,” said Nitin Golani, the India chief financial officer of Byju’s.

“That is how we are working towards it. Hopefully, that situation is under control,” he added.

The cricket body had dragged Byju’s to the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) under insolvency and bankruptcy regulation late last year over Rs 158 crore of unpaid dues.
