Over the past decade, the Internet has had a profound impact on higher education by enabling the phenomenal growth of online learning, moreover, the unprecedented situation of uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 forced the Indian education system to move to digital learning and teaching to fill the gap created by suspending classroom teaching across the country. Technological development and the Internet have changed the lives of people immensely and have also brought a huge change in various fields (Nadikattu, 2020). The objectives of current study were to ascertain the perception of students and teachers in higher education regarding online teaching and learning and to provide information regarding its benefits, challenges and suggesting guideline to overcome the challenges resulting in effective and enhanced use of the future of education. Data was collected through a semi-structured, self-constructed tool, separate questionnaires for teachers and students. Questions were constructed both open ended questions and closed ended, Teacher’s tool: 9 questions (1 open ended, 8 closed ended), Students tool: 11 questions (2 open ended, 9 closed ended) out of which 3 were relevant for this study. Results revealed for benefits of online learning for students were indicated as added flexibility in schedule and time-convenient by about majority of the students (60%) and large majority of teachers (74%) Little less than half of the teachers (48%) and more of the students (58%) also indicated it as cost-effective (saves time, travel, money, etc.). Regarding benefits of online teaching for teachers, about little less than half of the students (46%) and large majority of teachers (76%) indicated it as flexibility in schedule and time-convenient and large majority of teachers (74%) also indicated it as wide range of tools available (videos, movies, etc that assist in online-teaching.). The literature reviewed indicated the benefits of online teaching as flexible (time and location) and being able to learners who are very far from you.

However, contradicting to these the current study also indicated benefits such as wide range of available tools and using innovative creative ways of teaching through digital platforms.
