In a country where government jobs symbolize stability, security, and lifelong assurance, very few individuals have the courage to walk away from such certainty. Ankush Lamba is one of those rare individuals who chose purpose over comfort — and in doing so, went on to impact the lives of millions of students across India.
A Computer Science graduate from Rungta College of Engineering (2015), Ankush’s early journey followed a familiar path. Like thousands of aspirants, he prepared for banking examinations and successfully cleared them, earning selection as an Assistant Manager at Chhattisgarh Rajya Gramin Bank in 2018. For many, this achievement would have marked the final destination — a stable career, financial security, and societal recognition.
But for Ankush, it sparked a deeper realization.
During his preparation phase, he had already begun teaching reasoning to fellow aspirants. What started as small guidance sessions gradually evolved into structured learning programs. He observed a consistent problem among students — they were working hard, yet lacking clarity, exam strategy, and confidence.
In 2017, Ankush began teaching with one of the most prestigious educational institutes in India, where his ability to simplify complex reasoning concepts quickly made him stand out. His approach focused not just on solving questions, but on building logical thinking and exam temperament — skills critical for success in competitive examinations.
Despite securing a government officer’s role, Ankush made the bold decision to step away from it and return to full-time teaching. His reason was simple yet powerful: education allowed him to create impact at a scale far greater than any single job role.
This decision marked the foundation of what would later become a large digital education ecosystem.
Recognizing the growing demand for authentic, exam-focused guidance, Ankush founded Banking Chronicle, a YouTube channel dedicated exclusively to banking exam preparation. What began as a content initiative soon transformed into one of India’s most trusted learning communities for bank aspirants.
Today, Banking Chronicle has crossed 900,000 subscribers, becoming widely known for its powerful reasoning classes and practical problem-solving approach. The channel is not limited to teaching concepts — it also provides motivation, mentorship, and real-world exam insights.
Ankush is widely recognized as the first educator in the banking exam category to conduct self-given exam analysis, personally appearing for exams to understand updated patterns, difficulty levels, and question trends. This rare hands-on approach enables students to prepare with accuracy rather than assumptions.
Over the years, his digital sessions have accumulated over 601 million watch minutes, reflecting both the depth of engagement and trust students place in his guidance. More than 50,000 students mentored by Ankush have secured jobs in public sector banks, a milestone that highlights the real-world outcomes of his teaching methodology.
As his student community expanded, Ankush identified the need for a more structured and scalable learning platform — one that could integrate courses, mentoring, mock analysis, and strategic preparation under a single ecosystem.
This vision led to the co-founding of Yes Officer in 2023.
Within a short span, Yes Officer emerged as one of India’s fastest-growing banking exam preparation platforms, crossing 1 million registered learners. Ankush plays a central role in defining its academic direction, ensuring that learning remains structured, practical, and result-oriented.
The platform emphasizes smart preparation models, realistic exam frameworks, and confidence-building strategies — moving away from rote learning toward intelligent execution.
Beyond platforms and numbers, Ankush Lamba’s true influence lies in mindset transformation. His teaching philosophy strongly emphasizes discipline, consistency, and belief — qualities often overlooked but essential for cracking high-pressure competitive exams.
His digital presence extends across multiple channels. A highly active Telegram community with over 175,000 subscribers provides daily practice PDFs, mock sets, and exam updates. On Instagram, more than 35,000 followers engage with his journey as an ex-Assistant Manager turned educator, gaining insights into both preparation strategy and personal growth.
In an era where education is increasingly becoming transactional, Ankush Lamba represents a different philosophy — one centered on clarity, integrity, and measurable student outcomes.
From leaving a secure banking career to building platforms that now guide millions, his journey stands as a reminder that when knowledge is driven by purpose, education becomes a force capable of changing futures.
Today, Ankush continues to work with a singular mission: to make competitive exam preparation accessible, strategic, and effective for every serious aspirant across India — proving that the right guidance, delivered with intent, can truly transform lives.
