- The school issues fee-payment circulars and overdue reminders for each term; parents must follow the published term deadlines.

Boarding fees (if applicable)
- Boarding / hostel facilities are not part of the Senior branch offering; ICSK Senior operates as a day school with standard school hours. Boarding fees are therefore not applicable for the Senior branch.

Other costs and recurring charges
- Transport (school bus): A separate transport fee is charged for bus use; the transport service is a paid privilege with route-based charges and specific transport rules (one month's notice required to discontinue, bus behaviour rules, damage-cost recovery, etc.).

- Books and stationery: Compulsory book sets are required for secondary and senior-secondary classes; book-set charges are additional to tuition and are handled as a separate charge in the school's circulars.
- Uniforms: Uniforms are compulsory; uniform items are sold through the school's uniform process and are an additional cost to parents.

Refund information and non-payment terms
- The school states that school fees, once paid, are not refundable. Parents should note the school's published refund/cancellation wording when completing admission formalities.
- At the same time, the Ministry-level rules governing Indian CBSE schools require that approved tuition rates and the instalment schedule be followed and include protections regarding access to education and examination administration during the academic year.

Fee payment options and processing
- The school processes fee payments through its fee office and operates an online admissions/parent portal (ICSK Cloud) for registration and parent services; fee payments and receipts are coordinated via these channels.
