Sri RKM Law College

What Sri RKM Law College does

Sri R.K.M. Law College is a private legal education institution established in 1992 by Dr. R. Venkataswamy in Chittoor, Andhra Pradesh, India. It operates under the Srinivasa Educational Academy trust and delivers Bar Council of India-approved undergraduate and postgraduate law programmes. The academic portfolio comprises a 3-year LLB (300 seats across 5 sections), a 5-year integrated LLB (80 seats), and two 2-year LLM specializations in Labour Law and Intellectual Property Rights (20 seats each), all affiliated to Sri Venkateswara University, Tirupati. The college holds permanent approval from the Bar Council of India and APSCHE, and recognition under UGC Act Sections 2(f) and 12B. It is staffed by 20 full-time teaching faculty and 6 non-teaching personnel, supported by infrastructure including 18 classrooms, a Moot Court Hall with model court equipment, and separate hostel facilities for boys and girls.

The revenue model is tuition-driven and subscription-recurring in nature, with admissions split between the APSCHE-administered LAWCET convener quota (roughly 80% of LLB seats) and a management quota allocated by the Principal. The institution generates no disclosed technology revenue, has no AI/ML or proprietary software product, and operates a single-vertical go-to-market focused on law students in the Rayalaseema region. The website (srkmlcedu.in) serves as the primary marketing channel; no active social media presence, no digital distribution, and no app or API ecosystem were identified. The parent trust manages 23 educational institutions and a hospital chain, but this specific college's expansion and product surface have remained static in available data.

Ownership and governance are concentrated within the founding family. Dr. R. Venkataswamy serves as Chairman and R.V. Srinivas (B.Tech, MBA Cardiff) as Vice Chairman, with no external institutional investment indicated. Pricing and tuition fee schedules are not publicly disclosed. No funding rounds, M&A activity, leadership transitions, or material corporate structural moves have been recorded in the source data.
