IIM Bodh Gaya Fees: latest official schedules for MBA and IPM

The latest fee documents linked from IIM Bodh Gaya’s admissions page that I found are for the 2026-28 MBA, MBA – Digital Business and AI (DB&AI), and MBA – Hospital & Healthcare Management (HHM) batches, plus the 2026-31 Integrated Programme in Management (IPM). They are cohort-specific schedules, not a confirmed fee promise for a later intake. The institute’s admissions portal marks these cycles closed; use the amounts below to understand the latest published structure, then confirm the next batch’s prospectus before paying.

The 2026-28 schedule gives a course total of ₹17.96L for the two-year MBA and ₹16.70L each for MBA-DB&AI and MBA-HHM. The IPM schedule gives term charges for its first three BBA years; years four and five are billed at the MBA fee applicable to the 2029-31 batch, which is not set by the 2026 document. These figures come from the official schedules dated 8 May and 13 July 2026.

MBA 2026-28: ₹17.96L course fee

The institute’s six-term fee table totals ₹8.98L in Year 1 and ₹8.98L in Year 2, or ₹17.96L for the course. It lists ₹1.60L tuition, ₹41,000 hostel rent, ₹80,000 academic charges and ₹8,000 career development fee in each term. Academic charges cover computer lab and IT services, library and database subscriptions, textbooks and study materials, course compendia and case studies.

Other term-specific items are ₹15,000 admission fee in Term I; ₹6,000 annual registration in Terms I and IV; student activity fee of ₹5,000 in Terms II–V; ₹5,000 alumni activity fee in Term VI; and ₹10,000 convocation fee in Term VI. The listed term totals are ₹3.10L, ₹2.94L, ₹2.94L, ₹3.00L, ₹2.94L and ₹3.04L. They add to the stated course total. This is the standard MBA fee table, not the separate DB&AI or HHM schedule.

MBA-DB&AI and MBA-HHM 2026-28: ₹16.70L each

The 2026-28 schedules for MBA-DB&AI and MBA-HHM each state a course total of ₹16.70L, with annual totals of ₹8.35L. For both programmes, the table lists ₹1.60L tuition, ₹20,000 hostel rent, ₹80,000 academic charges and ₹8,000 career development fee per term. The academic-charge description matches the MBA schedule: computer and IT services, library and subscriptions, texts and study materials, compendia and case studies.

The other charges are ₹15,000 admission fee in Term I; ₹6,000 annual registration in Terms I and IV; ₹5,000 student activity fee in Terms II–V; ₹5,000 alumni activity fee in Term VI; and ₹10,000 convocation fee in Term VI. Term totals are ₹2.89L, ₹2.73L, ₹2.73L, ₹2.79L, ₹2.73L and ₹2.83L. The fee tables happen to match each other, but the programmes remain distinct; do not use the ₹16.70L figure as the standard MBA fee.

DB&AI’s programme page describes an optional 21-day overseas immersion. Its travel, visa, food, lodging and other associated costs are explicitly outside the course fee. The source does not give a fixed amount for that optional module, so budget it separately only after the institute confirms the destination and itinerary.

IPM 2026-31: published charges cover the BBA years

The July 2026 IPM schedule labels Years 1–3 as BBA (2026-29) and Years 4–5 as MBA (2029-31). For the six BBA semesters, its term-wise charges are ₹2.40L, ₹2.35L, ₹2.40L, ₹2.35L, ₹2.40L and ₹2.35L, totaling ₹14.25L across the first three years. That total is not the full five-year price. The fee table says students pay Years 4 and 5 at the actual fee for the MBA batch they join, giving 2026-31 students the then-applicable MBA 2029-31 rate. IIM Bodh Gaya has not fixed that rate in this schedule.

The institute’s IPM page says the five-year programme awards a BBA and MBA after completion, with an exit BBA available after the first three years subject to completion of programme requirements. The fee sheet also notes that a student opting out after Year 3 may have alumni-membership and convocation fees adjusted from the caution deposit. Confirm the applicable exit charges and deposit treatment with the institute before making that decision.

Deposits and amounts to keep separate

For the three 2026-28 MBA schedules, the fee sheet lists a ₹25,000 caution deposit paid with Term I. It is refundable after programme completion. The separate mess-and-laundry deposit is listed as ₹26,000 for Term I and ₹21,000 for each of the next five terms. IIM Bodh Gaya warns that later-term deposits may vary with vendor charges; the balance is adjusted or refunded with the caution deposit after completion. These deposits are not included in the stated ₹17.96L or ₹16.70L course totals.

For IPM 2026-31, the published schedule shows a ₹25,000 caution deposit and mess-and-laundry deposits of ₹35,000 for Semester I and ₹30,000 for each later semester during the first three years. Later deposits may change. The caution deposit is described as refundable at programme completion; the document also explains the adjustment for a student leaving after the BBA stage. Do not add a single estimated five-year IPM total: the 2029-31 MBA fee is set by a later cohort schedule.

The fee sheets say medical insurance is provided by the institute. They do not give a separate amount for personal travel, optional activities outside the stated programme, or other individual expenses. Check the fee notice and payment instructions for the exact term deadline and mode rather than relying on a prior-cycle payment page.

Scholarships, financing and what to verify

IIM Bodh Gaya’s MBA page points students to Government of India scholarship schemes, including the Top Class Education schemes for SC and ST students, the minority-community merit-cum-means scheme and the scholarship for students with disabilities. These are external schemes with their own eligibility, application windows and award limits; the institute’s programme page does not say that a scholarship automatically reduces the fee invoice. Check the relevant ministry notice and the institute’s current student-support office for the rules that apply to your category and cohort. The material reviewed here does not establish a fixed institute loan, waiver or scholarship amount to subtract from the fee tables.

Before budgeting for a new intake, confirm five points in the latest batch documents: which programme the fee schedule covers; whether the course total includes hostel and academic charges; the term-wise payment dates; the refundable caution and mess deposits; and any optional costs excluded from the course fee. For IPM, also ask when the MBA 2029-31 fee will be set and how the amount will be communicated to the 2026-31 cohort. The institute’s official admissions page and each programme’s fee notice are the controlling references. As checked on 4 November 2026, the official portal labels the MBA 2026-28 and IPM 2026-31 cycles closed; these fee documents do not confirm a later intake schedule.
