Executive Coaching Firms in India: 8 Compared and Checked

• Our first pick is Rohini Mundra Private Coaching, for founders and senior professionals who choose and pay for their own coach. After it come Vivek Singh, Jay Kumar, CoachCEO, Apex Leadership, Excellential, ProventusHR and Right Management.
• Fees are not published, so ask for the total price, session count, tax treatment and payment schedule in writing before you commit.
• Buy a named coach, not a brand. Several firms assign a coach from a panel or network after a matching call.
• Six checks decide most of the risk: credential, named coach, written total price, evidence of hours, who sees what, and an exit clause if the match fails.

Eight are worth shortlisting. We rank them for a founder or senior professional choosing and paying for their own coach. A company buying a multi-leader programme would weigh the same table differently. Fees are as of October 2026.

We run it as one three-month arc:

1. Month 1, Inner Awareness: understand your nature and quiet overthinking.
2. Month 2, Soul and Karma: explore deeper patterns and find connection.
3. Month 3, Living the Wisdom: apply peace in real life, under real pressure.

Sessions are personalised around your situation. For the business side we run The Heart of Business group programme, with interactive sessions and step-by-step hand-holding. We also run guided meditation sessions of 45 to 60 minutes, held virtually. You can read the background to this work on the about page. If you are unsure whether you need a mindset coach or a life coach, this scope comparison helps.

We quote after a short conversation, so ask us for the total. Call +91 7760095707 or email rohinimundra@rohinimundra.com, or start from our contact form.

Hire a named executive coach, whatever the firm. A firm sells a brand and a bench, but you will work with one person. Get that person's name, credentials and fee in writing before you pay.

Two models here assign the coach from a pool. Excellential matches you from its panel through a chemistry conversation, and Right Management works through a network of over 2,500 coaches. That is a legitimate model, but it means the brand tells you little about your coach. Individual practices such as Vivek Singh's, Jay Kumar's and ours put the coach in front of you from the first call.

If your employer is paying, also ask who receives progress information. Apex reviews progress directly with stakeholders, and ProventusHR measures change through 360-degree feedback, so colleagues are part of the process by design. This is a sensible method, but you should know it before you sign.

If your real problem is the growth of a service firm rather than your own leadership, a business coach may fit better than an executive coach. Which Business Coach Fits My Growing Service Firm? sets out how to tell the two apart.

You can't find them because providers don't publish them. Of the 11 providers whose own coaching pages we read in October 2026, none states a fee for the coaching itself. One shows two amounts, Rs 4 lacs and Rs 3 lacs, in an enquiry form at sridharlaxman.com, without saying what they cover.

That is a count of those 11 pages, not of the whole market. It does mean a quote is something you request, so make it comparable. Ask for the total price, the number of sessions, whether Goods and Services Tax (GST) is included, and the payment schedule. Then work out the cost per session: total price including tax divided by the number of sessions. Engagements also vary in length. Among the providers compared, they run from 3 months (Excellential's transition coaching, and our Private Coaching) to 18 months (ProventusHR), so compare cost per session and total duration, never a monthly figure alone.

If the engagement is for a small business rather than for you personally, set the quote against small business coaching, which covers what that kind of coaching solves and what it costs.

On those 11 pages, one names the ICF PCC level (Jay Kumar), two name ICF credentials without a level (CoachCEO, Excellential), two refer to ICF training or methodology (Vivek Singh trained for PCC; Apex follows the ICF core methodology), and six name no ICF credential (ProventusHR, Right Management, Coach Anand, Sridhar Laxman, Mathew Thomas, Coaching Foundation India). That is 1 + 2 + 2 + 6 = 11.
