Application / Registration fees

- Registration charge (application fee): INR 1,000 for the day school. Registration charge for the boarding school: INR 1,500. These registration charges are non‑refundable.

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)

- The school's published materials include a formal fee‑structure document that sets out detailed tuition and other fees by year group and by term, but the numeric tuition tables are supplied in that fee‑structure file (the school's published disclosure). The fee tables with per‑term and per‑year amounts were not available as plain text on the standard site pages for extraction here.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Payments are made through the school's online payment portal for the academic year (the portal shows 2025–2026 in its interface). The portal accepts online payments and records transactions against the academic year selected.
- The portal's terms specify that fees are to be paid using the online payment system and that parents should retain transaction records; the school reserves the right to vary terms and to decline acceptance of online payments if an account is in default.

Boarding fees and residential billing

- Boarding registration charge: INR 1,500 (boarding registration is non‑refundable). Options in the boarding application include week boarding and full boarding; parents must select type of boarding and food preference during application. If a pupil is withdrawn part‑way through the year from the boarding house, the parent agrees to pay the full year's boarding house fee for that academic year. Seats in the boarding house are allocated within a boarding quota; withdrawal may require reapplication to return as a day scholar. A refundable deposit is referenced in admissions material as an exception to the general non‑refund rule (amount not listed on the admission form).

Other costs and recurring charges

- School uniform: a school uniform is required; uniform details are provided after admission is confirmed. Material purchases such as certain starter items (for example, bag and socks) can be paid online through the school payment portal. Transport, lunch and other optional services are selectable during admission and are charged in addition to tuition as applicable. Specific amounts for uniform, transport and meal plans are shown in the fee‑structure document rather than on the general pages.

Refund information and deposits

- Registration charges and most school fees are non‑refundable. The admissions form indicates that “All school fees are non‑refundable once paid, except the refundable deposit.” The online payment portal's Refund/Cancellation clause states very clearly that “Fees once paid will not be refunded under any circumstances.” These two statements appear together in the school's admissions/payment materials (the admissions text references a refundable deposit exception; the payment terms give a stricter non‑refund statement). Parents should note the school's published refund wording when completing payment.

Fee payment options and bank/transaction charges

- Accepted payment methods: Credit card, Debit card, Net banking, UPI and related online payment methods via the school's online payment portal. The portal explicitly lists permitted modes and handles processing through a payment gateway.
- Online payment additional charges (examples listed on the portal):
- Credit cards (Visa/Master/Rupay/Diners): convenience fee 1% + 18% GST on the convenience fee.
- Debit card payments: no additional charge for most debit cards above INR 2,000.
- Net‑banking (examples): small convenience fee shown (e.g., INR 17 + 18% GST for some banks).
- UPI and BQR payments: shown as NIL additional charge on the portal.

Summary of missing fee details (important)

- The school's public disclosures include a dedicated fee‑structure document that contains the full numeric breakdown of tuition by year group and per term; that fee‑structure file is referenced in the school's mandatory disclosure materials. The detailed numeric tables for per‑term and per‑year tuition amounts were not present as plain text on the site pages accessed here and therefore specific per‑group, per‑term and per‑year fee figures cannot be reproduced in this overview without the fee‑structure file itself. For clarity: registration and boarding registration charges, refund wording, accepted payment methods and the online payment convenience fees are published in the school's admissions and payment materials and are given above.
