Fees

Application / Admission Fees
- Application / non‑refundable admission fee: ₹18,000 (one‑time).
- Security deposit (listed as refundable by some sources): commonly published as ₹60,000 (one‑time refundable security).

Tuition fees by year group (day students) — per academic year
- Early years (Nursery, LKG, UKG): reported totals around ₹774,700–₹776,300 per year.
- Primary (Grades 1–5): reported ranges approximately ₹8,30,000 up to ₹1,130,700 per year (figures vary by class).
- Middle school (Grades 6–8): reported ranges approximately ₹9,10,000 up to ₹1,206,700 per year.
- Secondary (Grades 9–10): reported ranges approximately ₹9,35,000 up to ₹1,243,900 per year.
- Senior secondary / Diploma years (Grades 11–12, IB/IGCSE pathways): reported figures vary; some published annual day‑school figures are around ₹6,35,999–₹6,80,000 for IB/IGCSE day study, while other class‑specific listings for Grades 11–12 appear in the ₹10,30,000 per year range. Expect published figures to vary by curriculum (IB vs IGCSE) and by source.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Billing frequency reported by third‑party listings varies: some class fee breakdowns are shown as monthly installments (÷12) while other listings present an annual total; a lump‑sum (annual) payment discount of 5% is reported.
- Late payment / finance charges are reported in published notes (example: a finance/late fee listed at ₹500 per day in one public fee summary). Tuition may be prorated for mid‑term admissions in some published notes; other published notes state tuition is not prorated on early withdrawal.

Boarding / residential fees (where applicable)
- Boarding is offered for Grades 6–12. Reported one‑time and annual boarding costs include an admission/registration charge of ₹18,000 and a one‑time boarding payment (joining/security/one‑time payment) noted at about ₹180,000, with annual boarding tuition figures reported in the range of approximately ₹1,250,000 to ₹1,500,000 per year depending on curriculum (IGCSE vs IB) and the listing.
- Market lists for boarding schools in the region place CIS boarding annual totals in a wider range (examples published around ₹1,350,000–₹1,700,000 per year).

Other compulsory / optional costs
- Transport (school bus / AC bus): reported amounts vary by source and by billing period. Examples published include approximately ₹35,000 per year on some class breakdowns, AC bus charges published as ~₹40,000 per term (with a higher per‑term charge for distances over 30 km), and other listings that show transport totals up to ~₹90,000 per year for some programmes. Transport is optional and charged separately from tuition in the published summaries.
- Security deposit: many class fee breakdowns include a refundable security amount (commonly shown as ₹60,000).
- Device / technology purchase option: published notes indicate Grade 6–12 students may opt to purchase iPads through the school at a discount (example: offered at 10% below MRP in a published note).
- Sibling discounts and concessions: published summaries report sibling discounts for additional children (examples: a small percentage discount for third and subsequent siblings) and that only one discount may be applied per fee item.
- Uniform, books and specific subject or exam entry fees are commonly additional and may be charged separately; the public summaries accessed do not list detailed single‑line rates for uniform or every ancillary cost.

Refund and refundable items
- Refundable items: published class fee breakdowns commonly list a refundable security deposit (example: ₹60,000).
- Refund policy for tuition: some published public fee summaries explicitly state that tuition fees are non‑refundable (example: a published note that "there will be NO refunds on fees"). Other published summaries still show refundable security deposits while treating tuition as non‑refundable. Expect refundable security deposits but limited or no refund on tuition in the publicly posted fee notes.

Fee payment options
- Published public summaries and school admission flows indicate standard school invoicing and installment models are used; specific, universally published payment methods for this campus (credit card, bank transfer, cheque, online gateway) do not appear as a single definitive list in the public fee summaries accessed. Parents are shown to be able to pay via standard institutional billing processes and installment plans in the published materials; exact accepted payment instruments are provided directly on the school's enrollment/invoice documentation.

Notes on variations and what was found
- Multiple recent public summaries and school listings publish fee amounts for the 2025–2026 and 2026–2027 sessions; the numbers vary by source and by whether the listing presents annual totals, first‑year totals for a new admission (which can include one‑time security and admission charges), or class‑specific tuition figures presented as monthly equivalents. Published sources used for this overview include school listings and regional boarding‑school fee compilations that show a range of figures for day and boarding options.

If you need this presented in a different layout (for example separate line items per grade with the exact source reference after each figure), that can be prepared from the published summaries noted above.
