Fee for MBBS hike by Rs 1 lakh in Maharashtra private medical colleges this year - Video

The private medical colleges in Maharashtra will charge the MBBS aspirants slightly higher fees this year with an increase of up to Rs 1 lakh per annum. However, the hike is marginal and the fee structure at most of the medical colleges is steady.

In fact, in a few of the medical colleges, the tuition fees have been reduced due to the increased scrutiny by the Fee Regulating Authority (FRA). While commenting on the matter, an FRA official told TOI that the decline in expenditure during the COVID-19 pandemic may have contributed to the lower increase of fees.

"For the last few years we have been considering the higher fees charged under NRI and institutional quota as colleges' income, which has helped in keeping the hikes stable," said the official.
