Fair Comparison

Makoons vs Running Your Own Preschool: A Fair Comparison

Many prospective partners ask whether they should start an independent preschool instead. Here is an honest comparison:

Factor Makoons Franchise Independent Preschool
Brand recognition from Day 1 ✓ Yes ✗ Must build from scratch (2–4 years)
Curriculum ✓ Internationally affiliated, ready to use ✗ Must develop or license
Admission support ✓ Structured pre-launch campaign ✗ Self-managed
Staff training ✓ Ongoing, included ✗ Self-arranged, at cost
Marketing assets ✓ National + local support ✗ Self-funded
Royalty ✓ Zero N/A
Break-even timeline ✓ 12–18 months ✗ Typically 24–36 months
Operational manual ✓ Complete process documentation ✗ Built through trial and error

Starting independently carries higher creative freedom but significantly higher operational risk, longer break-even timelines, and no brand equity from day one. For most investors entering early education for the first time, a franchise model reduces risk without sacrificing control.

Your Preschool Journey Explained in Simple Steps

Setting up a preschool is not about making a profitable venture – it is about creating a positive impact on the futures of children living in your own neighborhood.

There are many prospective franchise owners who share the same enthusiasm along with hesitation.

They know that they need to embark on a meaningful journey but do not know exactly how to start.

Why Choose a Preschool or Play School Franchise in the Education Industry?

India is home to one of the largest populations of children, creating significant scope for the preschool and play school sector. For entrepreneurs exploring a franchise in education industry, the growing need for quality early learning, rising competition for future opportunities, shrinking living spaces, and the increase in dual-income households are making professionally managed preschools increasingly relevant.

Opening a play school franchise in India is a lucrative option given the fact that the preschool education industry is growing by leaps and bounds. With the segment still prominently dominated by the unorganized sector, a franchise in education industry offers entrepreneurs an opportunity to enter a growing market with fewer regulatory limitations and relatively minimal infrastructural requirements for setting up a preschool franchise.

About the Preschool franchise in India - 2025 to 2030

  • The India preschool and childcare market is on a remarkable growth. Valued at USD 5.59 billion in 2025, it is projected to more than double to USD 15.17 billion by 2035 — a CAGR of 10.50%. A parallel TechSci Research report puts the 2024 market at USD 4.31 billion, expected to reach USD 8.01 billion by 2030. In rupee terms, industry experts place the market at roughly ₹25,000 crore today, with projections pointing to over ₹80,000 crore by 2032. The message is the same across every source: this sector is growing fast, and the window to enter early is now.
  • About 68% of all the preschools in India come under the unorganized sector, with approximately 25,300 private preschools in India as per 2023.
  • The online preschool segment is expected to capture over 20% of the overall preschool market share in India on account of the changing dynamics associated with preschooling delivery. (Technavio)
  • The full-day care category holds the largest share of 64.5% in the total preschool & childcare market in 2025 on account of the rising prevalence of dual-income households in urban India. (IMARC)
  • The key factors supporting the growth include increasing women workforce participation. In nuclear family setups where both parents have late working hours, demand for professionally run preschools with properly designed programs is rising.
  • In the context of the importance of the segment, the Government of India has been focusing on the segment through the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) program of the Ministry of Women and Child Development, which covers approximately 3.5 crore children in the age group 0–6 — though now an increasing number of urban families are increasingly opting for private programs. (Expert Market Research)
  • NEP 2020 has particularly emphasized ECCE and integrated it with the mainstream education system.
  • Cities of Tier 2 and Tier 3 categories are emerging rapidly as the fastest-growing market, witnessing growing aspiration of the middle class for early education and demand for international curriculum.
  • With ease of entry via franchising approach, minimum investments, and high ROI approach, this is the right time to venture into the business.

What is the total investment to open a Makoons preschool in India?

A Makoons preschool franchise's total investment ranges from ₹12 lakh to ₹25 lakh, depending on the city tier, property size, and other variables. This investment encompasses the franchise fee, interior setup, curriculum kits, employee training, branding and pre-launch marketing. Security deposit, monthly working capital and rent are separate and will vary depending on location and centre requirements in India.

The investment in a preschool franchise in India varies from ₹5 lakh to ₹40 lakh, as per the reputation of the brand, curriculum followed, tier of the city and size of the centre. In the zero-royalty model, Makoons' value falls somewhere between ₹12 and ₹25 lakh, as the franchise partner will retain 100% of the fee revenue, and not pay a percentage fee every month.

Your investment covers the franchise fee, child-safe interior setup, the complete curriculum kit (playgroup through kindergarten), teacher and staff training, branding and signage, and a pre-launch marketing campaign for your first academic year. Rent, security deposit, and monthly operating costs are additional and depend on your location.

No, Makoons follows a model of ZERO ROYALTIES. Therefore, there is no obligation for franchise partners to pay a percentage of monthly fee income to the brand. It's explained and detailed in the franchise agreement from the outset, so partners know the full extent of their financial obligations.

A solid preschool business plan should cover: local market and competition research, location and property analysis, your total investment breakdown, expected monthly operating costs, fee structure and revenue projections, staffing plan, curriculum approach, licensing requirements, an admissions/marketing strategy, and a break-even estimate. Makoons franchise partners get business-plan templates and financial guidance during onboarding.

A daycare business plan should include longer shifts for the daycare, napping/rest facilities, a higher number of staff to children for safety, food preparation, and pricing that reflects the daycare's full-day/half-day offerings as opposed to pricing associated with a preschool during the academic term.

Daycare franchise investment in India is broadly similar to preschool franchise investment. Adding a daycare component to a Makoons preschool franchise requires only a modest incremental cost — mainly rest/nap infrastructure and additional caretaking staff — since it shares the same base premises and setup.

The typical process of starting a preschool franchise in India includes: selecting a franchise brand, signing the franchise agreement, finding appropriate space (built up area of at least 1500 sq ft with a play area), undergoing local licensing and safety clearance, preparing a safe space for kids, recruiting and training staff and conducting a pre-launch admissions campaign. After signing an agreement, a Makoons centre can usually be open for business in 30-45 days.

A preschool franchise will provide you with a brand, curriculum and a structured training program, plus marketing support from the start — avoiding the trial and error that typically occurs with an independent preschool when developing brand trust and developing systems.

When considering a best preschool franchise, look at the track record of the brand, total investment, curriculum quality, royalty structure, training support, marketing support, and ongoing operational support.

No prior teaching experience is required to become a Preschool or Play School franchise partner. Makoons welcomes entrepreneurs, educators, and business owners with a genuine interest in early childhood education, and provides complete administrative training, SOPs, and teacher-recruitment support.

The minimum built-up space needed for a Makoons preschool franchise is 1,500 sq. ft., with approximately 500 sq. ft. of open play space. Typically the preferred property is situated in a residential or semi-residential locality on the ground floor or first floor and will be accessible for children and parents. The final suitability of the location and setup of the property can be determined once the centre has been established.

A playgroup franchise focuses on early socialization and sensory play for toddlers. A preschool franchise typically covers playgroups through nursery-level learning. A kindergarten franchise adds junior and senior KG, building academic readiness for formal schooling. Makoons combines all three formats under a single franchise agreement.

Makoons is built on a balanced curriculum covering academic, creative, and life-skills development, backed by structured training, clear operating guidelines, and a genuine commitment to quality early education for both parents and preschool franchise partners.

Requirements typically include a municipal trade license, fire-safety clearance, health and hygiene certification, and building-safety approval. Exact requirements and fees vary by state and municipality, so there's no single fixed figure — Makoons provides compliance guidance to franchise partners during setup.

Yes. Franchise partners who successfully run one centre and meet company requirements may be approved to open additional centres in suitable locations.

A Makoons preschool can be up and running within 30-45 days of the franchise agreement being signed. This includes site preparation, set-up inside, staff training and pre-launch admissions and marketing. While the process can change depending on the property's availability and local approvals, the Makoons team can assist you with the essential steps to ensure the set up process is smooth and organised.

Yes. An education franchise can perform well in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities where demand for organised early learning is steadily growing.

Makoons Preschool continues to receive the following support: academic planning, training for teachers, guidance, support for operations, curriculum development, marketing, admissions assistance, and quality management. The aim is to assist preschool franchise partners in operating their centres efficiently and to continue to provide quality education.

Yes. Makoons Preschool provides its franchisees marketing and promotional plans to help build its brand and gain admissions. This can encompass digital marketing assistance, branding resources, advice on campaign strategies, and promotional strategies.

Complete pre & opening support, full training, and support, including initial setup assistance, curriculum training, marketing support, and ongoing operational guidance, are provided by Makoons to ensure the success of each play school franchise in India under our brand.

Starting a Makoons preschool franchise requires an initial investment of ₹12–25 lakhs, depending on the location and area size. This covers infrastructure, setup, and initial operational costs.

You’ll need around 1500 sq. ft. of built-up space with at least 500 sq. ft. of open play area in a residential or semi-residential location. Easy accessibility and safety are key factors in selecting the site.

Yes. Franchise partners that are able to run one successful centre and meet the requirements of the company may be afforded the opportunity of expanding and opening additional centres in appropriate locations with the approval of Makoons Preschool/Play school.

A successful education franchise depends on five factors: strong admissions, cost control, a well-chosen location, a curriculum parents trust, and reliable franchisor support. Getting admissions and location right early on sets the pace for everything else.

Yes, a preschool franchise can be profitable when it's in a good location and run well. Steady admissions, controlled costs, and a zero-royalty model all help. Makoons franchise partners typically break even within 12–18 months and keep 100% of their earnings, since there's no royalty to pay.
