Integrity, discipline, compassion and lifelong learning guide life at Jyoti — in every classroom, corridor and celebration.

Building on a Legacy. Leading with Purpose.

Since 1969, Jyoti Model has provided education grounded in integrity, discipline and excellence. Our founders established a vision of quality learning with strong values, and Late Shri Vikas Gulati expanded the school’s academics and opportunities.

As the third generation, I uphold our family legacy while preparing students for the future. My Cambridge education reinforced the importance of curiosity, critical thinking and character alongside academic knowledge.

We remain committed to strong academics, creativity and holistic development. Every decision begins with what is best for our students, helping them dream confidently, think independently and lead with integrity.

Warm regards, Vallabha Gulati — Chairperson
