What it is

One free hour that children look forward to.

The Sunday Quiz is a live, national, inter-school quiz that is free for every child, whether or not their school is a KC partner. It runs every Sunday at 11 AM on Zoom, is played in real time on the KC quiz page, and is streamed on YouTube for anyone who cannot get a seat.

It works the way KBC does. Fastest fingers first, no lifelines, a fresh set of questions each week built from the biggest stories of the last seven days. Rajeev Poddar hosts, drawing on a library of 300+ quiz decks that between them cover nearly every major event of the last four years. Every quiz opens with a word cloud so each child is welcomed by name and school, and closes warm, never on a stumper.

Some weeks it opens with a familiar face, a commentator, a poet, a filmmaker. And for a handful of children, a Sunday morning here has been the first step to a national stage.


Where a Sunday can lead

From a free quiz to a national stage.

We call it KC to KBC. It is not a slogan, it has actually happened.

Purav, on Amitabh's hot seat.

A Class 5 child from The Heritage School, Kolkata, who plays the Sunday Quiz, cleared every round of KBC Junior and sat opposite Amitabh Bachchan himself. The episode aired nationally on Sony TV.

He is not alone. Another Heritage child from the same free quiz reached the HP Smart Champs national finals, streamed on Jio Hotstar, and finished second in the country, taking home ₹5 Lakh and a set of laptops.

Not always a quiz

The Sunday we all sat down to breathe.

A live yoga session, before the questions.

On International Yoga Day, the quiz paused for something quieter. A yoga teacher joined Aditya live on Zoom and, for a few minutes, a few hundred children across the country stretched, folded and breathed together from their own rooms.

Then, calmer and sharper, they played.


The most awaited quiz of the year

Then came the Harry Potter Sunday.

Spells, houses, Quidditch, creatures and the whole wizarding world, turned into one inter-school quiz. Children logged in with Hogwarts backgrounds and house scarves, and the room has never been more electric. It is the one every child asks for by name.

Live quizzes since 2023 · the receipts, not the claims

For years, children have shown up
to learn, live, together.

Knowledge Capsules has run live quizzes since 2023, and every one leaves a paper trail: a live leaderboard, a recording, an attendance log. Here is what those records add up to.

Then it became a Sunday habit.

In 2025 the quiz found its rhythm: eleven o'clock, every Sunday morning, live and free. The Sunday Mega Quiz has run week after week ever since, and it is where the numbers above grew fastest.

Three independent proofs, for every quiz.

Numbers are easy to claim and hard to trust. Ours line up against records anyone can check.

Put together, these make each figure here auditable: name the quiz, and all three records exist.

The competition runs deep

Across the Sunday Mega Quiz, the same young minds keep climbing the leaderboard. This record stays name-free. Here is the shape of the rivalry, and the schools behind it.

Winners come from private, government and Kendriya Vidyalaya schools alike. The leaderboard does not care where a child studies.

Figures compiled from 162 Sunday quiz leaderboards, 2023 to 2026. "Live quizzes since 2023" covers Knowledge Capsules' full quiz programme; the Sunday Mega Quiz is the weekly online quiz that has run every Sunday since 2025. Distinct-children counts are de-duplicated floors. These are quiz-programme figures, separate from Knowledge Capsules' overall numbers (children reached each week, partner schools, quiz library and weekly clubs).
