Shiv Vidya Prabhodhini Balasaheb Thackeray IAS Academy Mumbai has been offering educational services to the students preparing for the civil services exam. Mumbai is not merely a financial hub. It has a rich culture and history which in turn gives a glimpse into crucial moments, decisions that ultimately shaped the history of our Nation. Inspite of rich contributions all their life by Statesman-Educationists such as Jaggannath Shankarsheth and Dr. Bhau Daji Lad (Ramkrishna Vithal Lad), the City is yet deprived of a dedicated, quality institute imparting training for Civil Services Examinations to Mumbai’s talent pool. It’s our humble effort to providefor the same.
There are so many myths and misgivings about IAS Academy mumbai,civil Services in Mumbai and the experience tells us that this is because of minimal exposure to the Civil Services amongst the Student fraternity of Mumbai. It shall be our endeavour to burst these myths, cleanse of the misgivings and expose the students early in life to the Careers in Civil Services so that the crucial time is not wasted. To begin with let us tell you, Civil Services are not a forte of just the meritorious students, it’s an absolute myth. Every year in our IAS Academy Mumbai we have students with second class and below marks in academics clearing this exam with higher ranks.
The secret of the success here lies in the correct approach, comprehension of the scope of this exam, the right study material and above all the ability to write answers in the very unique way that satisfies the demands of the Union Public Service Commission.We are here, just to provide for the same and contribute to the National Development by providing “Professional” Civil Servants from our IAS Academy Mumbai
Solving thousands of multiple choice questions for Preliminary examinations, ‘brief and all encompassing’ answer writing skills for Mains examination and dressing and addressing for the Personality Test, is the way to success in Civil Services exams. Our training shall focus on the same. Freshers, undergraduates, veterans shall all be trained in different batches and their performance shall be assessed at regular intervals. This shall be provided by a combination of experienced faculties and visiting faculties mainly comprising of serving and retired bureaucrats.
Counselling shall be provided in areas such as aptitude for civil services for under graduates, subject selection for Mains exams, how to start preparation at the under graduate level etc. It is necessary to decide early, to succeed early in these exams. The late schooling years and early college/degree years are the crucial moments to decide firmly and take a plunge towards careers in Civil Services.
The study rooms are spacious, airy, well lit and have sufficient space for one’s baggage and books. Besides, with a dedicated campus open for students, the corners of corridor, peaceful and clean, are also a favourite place of some of our students. Suffice to say, the whole campus is your study room.
The library facility is replete with all the dedicated study material, magazines and audio-visual media, all of which have just one aim – providing an all round understanding of issues facing Indian administration for our students.

We at SVPIAS, welcome you to join us on a special journey!!! Shiv Vidya Prabodhini’s Balasaheb Thackeray IAS Academy is a Registered Public Trust, an institute with a focus of learning and educating ourselves. The immediate focus being on the most prestigious, Civil Services Examinations conducted by UPSC. Over the past 20 years, we have felicitated 500 + successful candidates who have cleared the reputed Civil Services Examination. As per SVP’s report and experience of over 20 years, we have always made sure to provide an enabling and encouraging environment to the students of Maharashtra to appear for one of the most competitive and powerful exam in the country: UPSC (CS) This merely needs the correct application and utilisation of basics (School & Graduate Level Learning) to the contemporary issues faced by the Indian administration. A two decade long interaction with the successful candidates and the guests of honour at SVP’s felicitation programs, made us perceive that dazzling bright success in Civil Services is exceedingly achievable, by sincerely studying and applying ourselves in a ‘desired’ manner.
It’s been a watershed since 2014 in the history of Maharashtra so far, as to Civil Services preparation and its success is concerned. SVPIAS assures that expensive logistics such as books or coaching, shall not be a hurdle for the talented aspirants from Maharashtra. Our aspirants would be saved with the expensive displacement in pursuit of success in the Civil Services Examinations. SVPIAS has designed a detailed program to prepare freshmens and even undergraduates for taking up the Civil Services Exams. So be it the CSAT at preliminary level or the answer writing skill oriented Mains, or the art of answering at the Interview Stage, we have it all covered through our thorough programs ready just to be implemented. We had experimented about the same for Civil Services Mains: 2013, for our first batch. Wherein around 40 candidates experienced the enabling and encouraging environment provided here at, Shiv Vidya Prabodhini’s Balasaheb Thackeray IAS Academy and since then we are in the process of entering the administration with higher ranks. Coming to Mumbai, it is not merely a corporate and financial hub. It has a rich culture and history which in turn gives a glimpse into crucial moments, decisions that ultimately shaped the history of our Nation. Inspite of rich contributions all their life by Statesman-Educationists such as Jagannath Shankarseth and Dr. Bhau Daji Lad (Ramkrishna Vithal Lad), yet the City lacks a dedicated, quality institute imparting training for Civil Services Examinations to Mumbai’s talent pool. It’s our humble effort to provide for the same. Ever since, we have been extending our reach to such hungry aspirants for success in Civil Services Examinations and have been providing 1 year of FREE COACHING to 1,000 students from 36 districts of Maharashtra with the batch commencing in the month of August EVERY YEAR. With the imperishable and eternal blessings of Balasaheb Thackeray, strong support of Hon’ble Chief Minister of Maharashtra Uddhav Thackeray and a passionate involvement of YuvaShri Aaditya Thackeray, the thoroughly prepared roadmap of our founder for the noble cause in the service of Maharashtra, shall definitely be a new chapter in the history of not only our State, but also our great Nation.
