How the ₹5–8L+ Real Marketing Budget Works at ZapScholar: Cohort Campaign Spend, Not Student Cash.
The ₹5–8L+ figure refers to real marketing spend across cohort/project campaign work under supervision. It does not mean each learner receives ₹5–8L+ to spend independently.
Does each student get ₹5–8L+ ad budget? No.
The budget is a cohort-level practical-learning resource used across suitable real campaign/project work.
The value is exposure to real budget responsibility, measurement and optimisation—not giving cash to learners.
