Sri Chaitanya started its historic journey in 1986 with the inception of a Girls Junior College at Vijayawada. Since then, there has been no turning back. The inception of Sri Chaitanya Educational Institutions was the result of a vision rather than the mere setting up of an institution. Our Founders and Mentors, Dr. B. S. Rao and Dr. Jhansi Lakshmi Bai, were hugely successful in the medical profession and decided to look at a fresh approach to Intermediate level education. A systematised methodology was introduced that changed the very face of education in Andhra Pradesh, for the better. A fresh chapter in the pre-university stream of education in the state began with the introduction of a more professional approach to teaching and staff management. The growth of Sri Chaitanya – post 1986, has been phenomenal and part of folk-lore. A Boys’ Junior college(1991), branches in Hyderabad (1996), Visakhapatnam (1998), Tirupathi and Guntur (2000), Eluru, Bhimavaram, Rajahmundry, Kakinada and Machilipatnam (2002), Tenali, Ongole, Srikakulam, Amalapuram, Chittoor, Nellore and Ananthapur (2003) in Andhra Pradesh. Sri Chaitanya continued its march forward by stepping beyond the state. Branches opened in Delhi (2004), Hamirpur-Himachal Pradesh (2005) and Bellary – Karnataka. In 2006, the institution opened IIT-JEE / AIEEE / PMT Coaching Centres at Mandi-Himachal Pradesh, Ranchi and Bokaro – Jharkhand and Indore - Madhya Pradesh. The Group continued its march forward with the inception of Sri Chaitanya Techno Schools in various districts of AP in 2008, and expanding to cover fourteen districts of the state and 3 districts of Karnataka including four branches in Bangalore by 2011.
