The administration of Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad (IIMA) has revised fees for its flagship course, 2-year Post Graduate Programme (PGP) in Management from Rs 22 lakh to Rs 23 lakh, an increase of about 4.5 per cent. Last year, in 2018 also the IIM Ahmedabad PGP fees were hiked from Rs 21 lakh to Rs 22 lakh.
The new fees will be applicable to the batch of 2019-2021. Now the candidates will have to pay Rs 23 lakh as the IIM Ahmedabad PGP fees, an increase of Rs 1 lakh to the last year course fee of Rs 22 lakh.
The governing council of IIM Ahmedabad took the decision to increase the fees for the post-graduate programme (PGP) in management by at least 4.3%, citing the revision was in line with the inflationary pressure.
According to Media reports, other IIMs may also follow suit and hike their course fees too, owing to inflationary pressures. As stated in media, “the Costs have been on the rise and the fees are inadequate to meet the rising expenses. Fees could rise by up to 4.5 per cent across the institutes. But students can get access to the scholarship opportunities”.
There are currently 20 IIMs in India, including those at Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Calcutta, Kozhikode, Indore, Udaipur, Nagpur, Amritsar, Jammu and Visakhapatnam.
