Running a chess academy in India

This hub is for the person running, or about to run, a chess academy in India. It routes you to the one guide that answers your current question rather than repeating a long how-to here. Each topic below has an owner page that goes deep on it.

Start with the launch checklist for registration, safeguarding, fees and parent communication. The AICF affiliation guide explains the federation side, the GST guide covers the tax questions coaches most often ask, and the fee guide shows how to read and set a quote. For the student side, the FIDE rating guide walks the rated-play pipeline. Academies working with schools have a playbook for school programs, and owners weighing growth can read the franchise guide.
