Laid-off employees of US-based edtech firm Focus Edumatics file complaint with Karnataka Labour Commissioner
The complaint, seen by Moneycontrol, is signed by full-time employees, freelance tutors, and vendors. It highlights how the sudden closure left over 1,700 remote tutors and other staff without severance or clarity on their financial settlements.

@GrahamCWeaver @dansanner please help us with an update on the pending severance pay for the FEV Employees, no one from your team is responding on this and this is not a professional way to lead an organization. Alpine cannot breach of trust with employees and expect the #Alpineinvestors to believe the company with their #investments. Your employee and our Ex-CEO, vanished after a 120 second video (https://t.co/ZacnKqqZNB) and there is a radio silence after that. Please ask some from your leadership to reach out to us and share an update on the below 3 points.
1.Full second-month notice period payout for eligible employees, as clearly stated in their contracts. 2.Encashment of earned leaves, per labor law requirements. 3. Additional one month of severance pay

FEV Tutor, Inc., operating under Focus Edumatics in India, employed over 3,000 people - only to abruptly shut down operations without any prior notice. The company has blatantly violated Indian labor laws by failing to pay the mandatory severance of three months’ salary, instead offering just one month’s payout. Employees have been left in limbo, with no clear update on their pending dues.
We demand immediate resolution of the following:
1.Full second-month notice period payout for
eligible employees, as clearly stated in their
contracts.
2.Encashment of earned leaves, per labor law
requirements.
3. Additional one month of severance pay
This unethical and inhumane layoff was announced in just 2 Minute video (https://t.co/ZacnKqqZNB) by the ex-CEO—without discussion, without dignity, without empathy. Your organisation claims to uphold “Unwavering Character”—but your actions show outright disregard for ethics and integrity against Alpineinvestor’s “People first” culture.
For a company with multi-billion-dollar assets, honouring contractual commitments would cost less than $1 million— yet you refuse to do the right thing, leaving 3,000 families struggling overnight.
If you can’t uphold basic legal and ethical obligations, why should investors in the USA or other countries trust you? Why should anyone believe in your brand?

Mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan discovered nearly 4,000 theorems and equations, unique and groundbreaking.
Some of his results were so advanced that they were not proven until decades after his death. He also anticipated some concepts that later became part of modern mathematics and physics, such as fractals, modular forms, string theory, and black hole cosmology.

A full-on Touch and go, with a tail strike! Watch for the paint dust after contact and watch the empennage shaking as it drags. The pilot deserves a medal! BA training could use this in a scenario - happy to send the footage chaps 😉
