IIT Bombay : My experience after a year in "India's best college"

It's a government college so there isn't really any fee hike regularly. The entire cost of my education is about 10 to 12 lakhs and scholarships are readily available esp for economically weaker sections. There are TAships which are available and also other positions of responsibility
