What is the total cost for B.Tech + M.Tech Chemical Engineering in IIT Delhi??

I graduated from IIT Bombay in 2020 with a BTech degree in Chemical Engineering. Based on that experience, I can provide some insights into the cost of studying at IITs. Most IITs have similar costs, so this should give you a good idea. Here’s the breakdown of the expenses:

• Tuition Fee (Academic Fee): 1 Lakh Per Semester
• Total Tuition Fee: 1 Lakh Per Semester x 2 Semesters Per Year x 4 Years = 8 Lakh For 4 Years
• Variable Fee (Academic Fee): 8k To 10k Per Semester
• Total Variable Fee: Average 10k Per Semester x 2 Semesters Per Year x 4 Years = 80k For 4 Years
• Hostel Fee: 12k To 15k Per Semester
• Total Hostel Fee: Average 15k Per Semester x 2 Semesters Per Year x 4 Years = 120k For 4 Years
• Mess Fee (Different For Different Hostels): 20k To 30k Per Semester
• Total Mess Fee: Average 25k Per Semester x 2 Semesters Per Year x 4 Years = 200k For 4 Years
• TOTAL FEES FOR 4 YEARS = (8 + 0.8 + 1.2 + 2) Lakh = 12 Lakh

So, on average, the total cost of studying at IITs would be around 12 lakhs for 4 years (BTech Degree).

Here's the breakdown of fees for UG students who took admission in 2023–24 for Semester 1:

While this includes adjustments for JOSAA counseling fees and some one-time security deposits, it does not cover mess charges. The breakdown for the second semester (General/OBC with Annual Family income > ? 5 Lakh) was as follows:

• ? 1,05,750 for Tuition & Exams
• ? 26,800 for Mess
• ? 13,250 for Hostel accommodation

This totals ? 1,45,800!

To clarify, the biggest chunk of fees is, of course, the tuition fee (as shown above).

(I’m not even sure what the Student Distress Fund Scheme is or that it exists!)

Additionally, there are multiple scholarship opportunities available once you’re in IIT Delhi, which is a topic worth discussing separately.

So, if you're considering the B.Tech + M.Tech in Chemical Engineering at IIT Delhi, the total cost comes to about ?595,000 for the entire duration. That's based on the annual fees of ?119,000. It's a significant amount, but honestly, with the quality of education and placement opportunities, many find it justifiable.

The total cost for the B.Tech + M.Tech in Chemical Engineering at IIT Delhi is around ?119,000 per year. Since this is a dual degree, you can expect to spend this amount for five years, so in total, you're looking at about ?595,000. It’s a bit on the higher side, especially if you don’t get any scholarships. My family income is above ?5 lakh per annum, so I couldn't avail any scholarships, which makes it a bit tough.
