Overall rating
Rodha backs its promise with what most CAT coaching marketing doesn't: named toppers, exact percentiles, and the specific B-school each one converted — published at scale, not as a handful of cherry-picked examples. Combined with founder-led teaching and pricing well below traditional offline institutes, it's one of the stronger-documented options for CAT 2026 aspirants.

Rodha (rodha.co.in) is an online coaching platform for CAT and other MBA entrance exams — SNAP, XAT, NMAT, CMAT, MH-CET (OMETs) — plus IPMAT, built around live and recorded classes, mock tests, and study material. It's described on-site as "India's most trusted CAT and MBA online coaching," and its numbers back that positioning: 10,000+ selections and a base of 5,00,000+ CAT aspirants who've engaged with the brand.
The brand was founded by Ravi Prakash, a 99.86-percentiler in CAT himself and formerly the top-rated Quant & LRDI educator at Unacademy CAT, where he trained 35,000+ students. He built Rodha (Sanskrit for "bridge") to make high-quality CAT coaching affordable and accessible online — a mission still reflected in current testimonials, several of which mention Ravi Prakash by name for his hands-on, personal involvement even at scale.
This is where Rodha stands out. Rather than vague claims, the results are specific, named, and published at real volume:
The site's topper wall names individual students batch by batch, with their exact percentile and the B-school they were admitted to. A representative sample:
| Topper | CAT 2025 Percentile | B-School Admit | Batch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Siddhant Misra | 99.97% | IIM Ahmedabad | R1 |
| Rishabh Jain | 99.91% | MDI Gurgaon | R3 |
| Rohit Kumar Jha | 99.8% | IIM Ahmedabad | R3 |
| Bhupesh Bansal | 99.8% | IIM Calcutta | R2 |
| Varul Sharma | 99.65% | IIM Ahmedabad | R1 |
| Aditi Pandey | 99.63% | IIM Bangalore | R3 |
| Prithvi Shetty | 99.39% | SPJIMR | R8 |
| Adyatan Mishra | 99.39% | MDI Gurgaon | R3 |
| Manan Jain | 99.35% | IIM Lucknow | R5 |
| Manav Pathak | 99.32% | XLRI | R3 |
| Shriya Yadav | 99.18% | IIM Ahmedabad | R3 |
| Dhananjay Tanwar | 99.1% | FMS Delhi | R6 |
| Zarish Khan | 98.98% | IIM Indore | R3 |
| Vansh Batra | 98.94% | XLRI | R7 |
| Ujjwal Singhal | 98.92% | IIM Kozhikode | R3 |
| Amrit Singh | 98.92% | SPJIMR | R5 |
| Nitin Sharma | 98.91% | SCMHRD | R1 |
| Varun Kumar | 98.81% | IIM Calcutta | R1 |
That's 18 named toppers spanning nearly every top B-school in the country — IIM Ahmedabad, Calcutta, Bangalore, Lucknow, Indore, and Kozhikode, plus XLRI, FMS Delhi, MDI Gurgaon, SPJIMR, and SCMHRD — a genuinely wide spread rather than results concentrated in one or two institutes.
| Program | What's included | Investment |
|---|---|---|
| CAT 2026 R7 (Hinglish) Comprehensive Batch | 21 courses — full Quant, LRDI, VARC coverage, booklets, test series, boosters, OMETs prep, syllabus complete by Sep. 2026 | ₹24,999 → ₹21,499 (14% off) |
| CAT 2026 Crash Course Complete Package | 12 courses — Quant, LRDI, VARC end-to-end plus OMETs (XAT, SNAP, NMAT) prep; built for a fast-track full syllabus run | ₹21,999 → ₹19,999 (9% off) |
| Rodha CAT Accelerator | Practice-first add-on focused on paper-setter-style thinking, examination and consistency | ₹8,999 → ₹6,999 (22% off) |
| Zero to Zenith VARC (R3/R4, English) | 5 courses — full English-medium VARC track, 400+ RCs, doorstep booklets, boosters and workshops | ₹15,000 → ₹13,499 (10% off) |
| Free Study Material | Sample sessions, PDFs, previous papers | Free |
This puts Rodha's flagship comprehensive batch at roughly a third of what offline institutes typically charge (₹40,000–₹60,000+), while still including doorstep-delivered practice booklets, live boosters, and OMET prep bundled in.
What stands out across these stories is how often specific faculty are named — Ravi Sir, Tarun Sir, Swapnil Sir, KD Sir, and Divya (GDPI mentor) — a sign of a program where mentorship is felt individually, not just delivered as generic video content, even at a scale of 10,000+ selections.
