Neutrinos are massless as proposed in the Standard Model of particle physics. However, neutrino experiments in the last few decades have revealed that neutrinos flavour oscillate, a scenario possible only if they have mass and mixing. Existence of neutrino mass was the first conclusive evidence of physics beyond the Standard Model, and explaining the smallness of the neutrino masses and peculiar mixing angles still remains a challenge for model-builders proposing beyond Standard Model scenarios. We give a brief introduction to the phenomenon of neutrino oscillations and showcase some recent work where we look for physics beyond the three-generation neutrino oscillation paradigm and its impact on future experiments.
