  abstract = {Massive open online courses (MOOCs) are especially recent and vital in Higher education (HE). MOOCs are
growing increasingly popular, with large enrolments. India’s MOOC initiatives include NPTEL, IITBombayX,
NROER, ePG Pathshala and SWAYAM. Various online platforms offer accessibility to online courses designed
to promote continual learning. MOOCs are challenging to implement in India for several reasons. In this
work, we will define MOOCs and the organisations and universities that deliver them and present a fundamental
analogy of the various MOOC platforms. This study examined MOOC sites and other popular MOOC platforms
in India. It also mentioned some of the advantages and disadvantages of MOOC platforms. The outcome is to
ascertain the most effective MOOC platform in the Indian context.},
