Since its inception in 2016, the initiative has expanded from 18 schools in one city to 1,100+ cities across India, reaching around 3 million students over the last decade. This year, the quiz is available in 10 Indian languages, with 60 registered schools from vernacular-medium backgrounds, further strengthening its reach among students across diverse regions and communities.
Speaking about the initiative, Somesh Surana, Joint President – Digital Business Group & Marketing, HDFC ERGO General Insurance Company, said the programme aims to build insurance awareness, financial literacy and preparedness among young minds. The preliminary rounds are currently underway, with the top 32 teams progressing to virtual zonal rounds, followed by 6 teams competing for the National title at the physical grand finale scheduled to be held in Mumbai on 22 September 2026.
