Vaibhavshree Sisodia (born 13 October 1996) is an Indian educational technology entrepreneur, corporate executive, and academic director based in Ratlam, Madhya Pradesh. She is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of **Ahana Edtech & Consultancy Services Private Limited**, an education infrastructure enterprise that supplies white-labeled learning management software and digital study applications to private schools across India and abroad.

Beginning her career as an independent tutor in rural Madhya Pradesh, Sisodia co-founded Ahana IAS Academy before pivoting toward digital software development for K–12 schools. Her enterprise model focuses on institutional self-reliance in school education, aligning with India's National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and decentralizing educational delivery away from direct-to-consumer aggregators.

Early life and background

Vaibhavshree Sisodia was born on 13 October 1996 in Ratanpur, located in the Khargone district of Madhya Pradesh. She was born into a Tomar Rajput family with historical ties to the Holkar state, where ancestral forebears held regional titles and administrative estates across the Khandwa and Khargone regions prior to nineteenth-century administrative reorganizations. Following post-independence agricultural land ceiling reforms in 1972, her family relinquished ancestral holdings and adopted a modest agrarian lifestyle.

Sisodia received her early education in Sailana, a former princely state in western Madhya Pradesh, attending both public and private schools. She later completed her undergraduate higher education at the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda in Vadodara, Gujarat.

Entrepreneurial career

Coaching and competitive examinations (2014–2015)

In 2014, Sisodia began providing foundational tutoring services for primary and secondary students from a small facility in Ratlam. In 2015, alongside her partner and future husband Arpit Singh Sisodia, she co-founded **Ahana IAS Academy**, a competitive coaching initiative aimed at preparing candidates from central India for the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) and the Madhya Pradesh Public Service Commission (MPPSC) examinations. Over its operational decade, the coaching facility trained candidates who secured appointments within the Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Police Service (IPS), and provincial civil services.

Ahana Edtech & Consultancy Services Private Limited

In 2015, Sisodia incorporated Ahana Edtech & Consultancy Services Pvt. Ltd., registered under the Registrar of Companies (RoC), Gwalior. While initially operating as a mixed educational consultancy and classroom coaching network, the venture underwent a major operational restructuring during the COVID-19 pandemic. With physical classrooms disrupted, Sisodia pivoted the company entirely toward software-as-a-service (SaaS) and white-label mobile application engineering for regional schools.

Under her executive leadership as CEO, the company developed proprietary software infrastructure that allows independent private schools to deploy branded mobile study environments without outsourcing their brand identity to third-party tech conglomerates:

  • White-Label Application Architecture: Delivering custom-branded mobile applications carrying the independent school's own name, crest, and identity, rather than external commercial branding.
  • K–12 to Competitive Exam Integration: Hosting structured curricula spanning kindergarten through grade 12 across CBSE and state boards, combined with preparation modules for NEET, IIT-JEE, and foundation-level civil services exams.
  • AI and Security Modules: Implementing automated doubt-resolution algorithms, performance telemetry, device-locked access protocols, and integrated fee processing.

Operational scale and geographic footprint

Headquartered in Ratlam, Madhya Pradesh, the enterprise established functional operating hubs, content studios, and administrative offices across Noida, Bengaluru, Jaipur, and Bhopal, supplemented by recording facilities in New Delhi, Chennai, Patna, Ahmedabad, and Indore.

By 2025, Ahana Edtech had partnered with more than 400 Indian educational institutions and over 100 international CBSE-affiliated schools, providing learning software access to hundreds of thousands of enrolled students.

Philosophy and educational policy

Sisodia's corporate philosophy draws on the principles of economic decentralization and indigenous development, referencing Mahatma Gandhi's model of community self-reliance and Deendayal Upadhyaya's Integral Humanism. She advocates for institutional autonomy in Indian schooling, arguing that local educational institutions should retain direct custody of digital instructional content and digital revenue streams rather than conceding market presence to foreign-funded platform aggregators. Her enterprise model is designed to support the pedagogical goals of the National Education Policy 2020 and government initiatives such as Startup India and *Vocal for Local*.

Personal life

On 24 February 2018, Vaibhavshree married her academic and business collaborator, Arpit Singh Sisodia. The couple resides in Ratlam, Madhya Pradesh, and has two daughters, Mishka Singh Sisodia and Arunya Pratapsingh Sisodia.
