Mumbai: The Maharashtra government has proposed a law to regulate private coaching centres across the state, making registration mandatory while introducing provisions on fees, infrastructure, student safety, counselling and grievance redressal.
The proposed Maharashtra Private Coaching Centers (Registration and Regulation) Act, 2026, issued by the School Education and Sports Department, aims to create a regulatory framework for private coaching classes, with particular emphasis on students' mental wellbeing, education and facilities. The draft is currently open for suggestions and objections, which the government has said will be considered if received by 6 pm on September 4, 2026.
The proposed law would apply across Maharashtra and would come into force from a date to be notified by the state government. It defines a coaching centre as an establishment providing coaching to more than 25 students, including preparation for academic programmes and competitive examinations.
