At a time when students often have to travel long distances for quality coaching, PiIOTA brings opportunity to their doorstep. What sets this centre apart is not just its IIT/NIT alumni-backed academic strength, but its vision—to mentor and groom each student holistically, beyond just textbook knowledge.
The brainchild of Mr. Nishant Srivastava, PiiOTA is built on a powerful foundation:

Proven track record in guiding aspirants to NEET and JEE success
This isn’t just another coaching institute. It’s a learning ecosystem designed to nurture confidence, clarity, and character in every student.
My heartfelt congratulations to the entire PiiOTA team. I look forward to being available to the students here, especially NEET aspirants, to guide and motivate them on their path to excellence.
Skilling up should not be a matter of distance—it should be a matter of direction. PiIOTA brings that direction home.
