| Controversy | In July 2018, he was accused of deceit to gain popularity. His students had leveled charges of deceit on him. Some of the students alleged that Anand Kumar projected an inflated success rate of his coaching center by making a misleading claim that 26 out of 30 students had cleared the IIT JEE Exam in 2018. The students said that only 3 from Super-30 batch could qualify for IIT JEE. The whistleblower students said that when from different corners of India approached Anand Kumar to get themselves enrolled at the Super-30, he would divert them to another coaching institute named Ramanujam Mathematics Classes. The students were directed to the attend the Institute for one year by paying a handsome fee before getting into the Super-30 after which their fee would be returned, however, the fee never returned to them; as claimed by the father of one of the students. In this vicious cycle, Anand Kumar gets fame; even after the successful students belong to some other institutes. However, Anand Kumar refuted all these claims by saying that it was an effort of his rivals to malign the repute of his Super-30. |
