I am paying around 60,000 to 70,000 a semester and it depends and tution fees is mostly same for all the semesters and it is exactly 33333 i.e one third of my original tution fees and it is because of my category reason. Registration fees for every semester is 1000 rs. Examination fees for every semester is 500 rs. Medical fee is a bit different as per my knowledge cause i pay exactly 1900 rs in the first semester and now in the second semester i am going to pay only 100 rs.

General Students with NO reservations: Tution fees 1 lakh per semester, Other fees: around 35000 per semester which includes folding lodging and everything. The only available scholarship is the IMS scholarship which waives off the tuition fees if the person stands 1st in the particular year in terms of YPI.

Experiencing the life at Dream College

There are 2 semester in a year each of 1 lakh tution fee and around 40 thousand hostel fee which is pretty decent compared to other colleges. As such you cant earn directly in campus but if you are good at a skill u can do freelancing or go for any govt scholarship exams if u like.
