A coaching institute in Sikar, Rajasthan just gifted one of their students a swanky BMW car, worth a whopping Rs. 27.5 lakhs, for achieving a coveted number 11 rank in the IIT-Joint Entrance Exam (Advanced).
Institute director keeps up promise
“The director (of the institute) had announced that whoever achieves a rank under 20 in the IIT-JEE Advanced, will get his BMW. He kept his promise,” said a visibly happy Tanmaya, who aspires to be a software engineer.
The German-made vehicle is worth Rs 27.5 lakh and has done 1,500km since it was bought two years ago by Dr RL Poonia, the director of Samarpan coaching institute.
Though gifts and rewards are not uncommon among the numerous coaching institutes in the state, it is perhaps the first time such an expensive vehicle has been given to a topper.
