The fee structure can be a little higher than normal for some individuals. It might not be easily affordable, therefore scholarships are provided by the college. The annual fee structure for the whole course is 10.82 Lakhs. There are merit-based scholarship opportunities available. However, it's important to understand that it's just for students who come from a low-income home

Fee Structure And Facilities:

The fees is highly expensive. If you study in a brand that's what you have to pay. The fees for my course I'd about 8.5 lakhs. Other amenities are costly too. You really have to do something about it if you are from general category. For SC/ST it's about 70000 only.

The fee for each semester is around Rs 1,35,000 including the tuition fee, mess fee, hostel fee, medical fee, transportation fee, etc. I don't think it's that expensive. Also, a part of this fee is refundable when you graduate from the ecollege.
