West Bengal Father Gifts Rs 2.3 Crore BMW M4 to Class 9 Son for Good Exam Results

Parents often motivate their children to perform well in examinations by promising gifts such as new clothes, bicycles, chocolates or other favourite items. However, a father in West Bengal has taken this tradition to an extraordinary level by gifting his 15-year-old son a luxury BMW car worth around Rs 2.30 crore for performing well in his half-yearly examinations.

The unusual gift has become a major talking point on social media, with people expressing surprise and sharing mixed reactions.

The student, identified as Mohammed Talha, is a Class 9 student from Paraj village in East Burdwan district of West Bengal. His father, businessman Shamsuddin Midya, decided to reward his son’s academic performance with a brand-new BMW M4 Competition.

According to reports, Talha studies at a reputed school in Burdwan and secured good marks in his half-yearly examinations. Delighted with his son’s hard work and performance, Shamsuddin reportedly promised to give him a special gift.

He subsequently took his son to a car showroom and booked one of the most expensive luxury cars as a reward for his academic achievement.

The BMW M4 Competition is a high-performance luxury sports car equipped with modern technology and premium features. Its estimated price in the Indian market is around Rs 2.30 crore.

Luxury BMW Brought From Mumbai in a Special Container

To purchase the luxury vehicle, Shamsuddin Midya travelled to Mumbai and bought the BMW M4 Competition from a showroom in the Andheri area.

After the purchase, the expensive car was transported from Mumbai to Paraj village in West Bengal inside a specially designed enclosed container.

The vehicle reportedly arrived in the village on Friday, November 6. Its arrival attracted considerable attention, with a large number of local residents gathering to catch a glimpse of the luxury car.

The news of a Class 9 student receiving a BMW worth crores for his examination results soon became a topic of discussion beyond the village.

Social Media Reactions Remain Divided

Shamsuddin Midya’s extravagant gesture has triggered mixed reactions on social media.

While many people have praised the father for recognising his son’s hard work and fulfilling his promise, others have questioned whether gifting such an expensive vehicle to a 15-year-old is necessary.

Some users have appreciated the gesture as an example of parental encouragement, arguing that children should be rewarded for their dedication and academic achievements.

However, others have raised concerns about the value of such extravagant rewards and whether they could create unrealistic expectations among children.

The incident has also sparked a wider debate about how parents should motivate their children to perform well academically and whether expensive gifts are the right way to recognise educational success.
