CAT a brief Review

Each year tuition fee was up to 50000 per year and an annual fee of 80000 per year. For the CSE category only need to pay 5000 to 10000 per year and they will be getting relaxation in the hostel fee also. Whoever wishes to apply scholarship needs to submit income proof to management.
