Circulars landing in parent spam
Bulk circulars from an unauthenticated domain get filtered, and the office spends the next day on the phone. Proper SPF, DKIM and DMARC fix the cause.

Schools & Coaching Centres in Kolkata: what the practice actually looks like
Kolkata's school landscape is unusually shaped by legacy. The missionary and convent-founded ICSE institutions in central Kolkata carry alumni traditions measured in generations, with founders' days, house systems and old-boys' networks that remain genuinely active, and admission to them is treated as a family continuity question rather than a consumer choice. Around that core sit West Bengal board schools with strong Bengali-medium traditions, an expanding CBSE layer in Salt Lake, New Town and the southern suburbs, and Anglo-Indian schools with their own governance. Parents here are academically demanding and culturally invested in board results, and coaching for engineering and medical entrance runs heavily out of south Kolkata neighbourhoods. Fee sensitivity is real, and long-standing institutions often operate on trust budgets rather than corporate ones. Correspondence tends to be formal — printed circulars still matter, and email is expected to sound like the school, not like a marketing list.
Kolkata is the commercial gateway to eastern India. Burrabazar is one of the country’s largest wholesale trading markets, the old Dalhousie district still holds head offices, banks and shipping agents, and Salt Lake Sector V with New Town has built a substantial IT and BPO corridor. The city remains the centre of India’s jute industry and a historic hub of the tea trade.
Kolkata hosts one of the world’s oldest tea auction centres and remains the administrative heart of India’s jute industry, which is concentrated along the Hooghly. The Kolkata Port Trust, India’s oldest operating major port, still serves a large hinterland covering eastern India, Nepal and Bhutan.

Why Kolkata schools & coaching centres choose HavitoMail
Fee mails look like fraud

Staff turnover every session
When the admissions counsellor changes in April, an admissions@ mailbox owned by the school keeps every enquiry thread intact.
FAQs — schools & coaching centres in Kolkata
Can schools & coaching centres in Kolkata use HavitoMail?
Yes. HavitoMail serves schools & coaching centres across Kolkata and the rest of West Bengal, including Salt Lake Sector V, Park Street, New Town Rajarhat, Burrabazar, Dalhousie Square. Connect the domain you already own — .in, .co.in, or .com — and your team is on professional email within 30 minutes.
We correspond with alumni going back decades as well as current parents — how should that be handled?
Keep both on institutional addresses rather than a teacher's personal account, because an alumni or founders'-day mail from an unfamiliar Gmail ID reads as impersonation to exactly the people most attached to your school. Separate alumni@ and office@ addresses on your own domain keep the two audiences distinct without extra cost. HavitoMail supports both as mailboxes or aliases on the same domain.
Why do our circulars to parents go to spam?
Sending many similar messages from a domain with no SPF or DKIM record is the fastest way into a spam folder. HavitoMail’s guided setup has you publish and verify MX, SPF, DKIM and DMARC records before you send, which is the single biggest improvement most schools see.
Can each department have its own address?
Yes — admissions@, exams@, accounts@, transport@ and principal@ are the usual set, either as separate mailboxes or as aliases delivering into shared inboxes. Up to 20 mailboxes are included in the flat ₹149/month plan.
What does it cost compared with Google Workspace in Kolkata?
Google Workspace Business Starter runs about ₹136 per user per month, so a six-person school in Kolkata pays roughly ₹816 every month. HavitoMail Pro is a flat ₹149/month covering up to 20 mailboxes — the saving compounds every year with no per-seat renegotiation.
