KSOM’s MBA FAQ lists a total course fee of ₹18,00,620 for the MBA course 2027. The school’s detailed fee page gives the same grand total for the 2026-28 batch, alongside its payment schedule and cost components. Those two statements are useful together, but they have different scopes: the FAQ labels the amount for MBA 2027, while the itemised schedule is explicitly for 2026-28. Applicants entering in 2027 should verify the 2027-29 offer letter and payment calendar before treating every installment or component as unchanged.
The official fee figure is described as a course total, not a tuition-only figure. KSOM says it includes tuition, one-time admission and administration charges, AC hostel, mess, laundry, development, books and materials, and laptop. The FAQ also says the MBA is fully residential and hostel is mandatory. This matters for budgeting: do not compare ₹18,00,620 with another programme’s tuition-only figure, and do not assume a non-residential option can reduce this amount.
For planning, keep three numbers separate: the total quoted for the 2027 MBA, the detailed 2026-28 installment schedule, and the amount the selected candidate’s offer letter actually makes due. The MBA fees and scholarship page is the source for the earlier batch’s itemisation; the MBA FAQ is the current source for the 2027 total. KSOM’s published pages do not provide a 2027-29 itemised schedule or an individualized payment date, so confirm both before arranging a loan or paying an installment.
KSOM’s detailed page says the total for the two-year full-time residential 2026-28 MBA is ₹18,00,620. Its package includes tuition and academic charges, plus accommodation and living items rather than tuition alone. The listed components are:
The school groups the academic charges as ₹3,22,500 per installment and the hostel charges as ₹1,02,655, for a listed installment total of ₹4,25,155. There are four such installments in the schedule. Adding those payments (₹17,00,620) to the one-time ₹1,00,000 yields ₹18,00,620, matching the stated grand total. This arithmetic is a check on the published table, not a claim about a different batch’s schedule.
The five-month labels are attached to hostel, utility, establishment, mess and laundry charges in each installment. They do not mean those categories are optional or that the student can subtract a pro-rated amount. KSOM’s FAQ calls the programme fully residential and says hostel is mandatory. Ask the school how the amounts are timed if the academic calendar changes, if a student withdraws, or if an offer is accepted after an installment due date; those conditions are not set out in the fee table itself.
The fee page lists ₹1,00,000 as a one-time admission payment. It then shows four equal installments of ₹4,25,155. Each installment combines ₹3,22,500 in academic charges and ₹1,02,655 in hostel charges. On the page, the academic total is made up of tuition, development and co-/extra-curricular fees; the hostel total combines AC hostel, utility and establishment, mess, and laundry for five months.
This structure helps a family plan the size of each scheduled payment, but the page does not print calendar due dates next to the four installments. Nor does it provide a monthly payment option or state that the one-time amount is refundable. Treat the schedule as a breakdown, not a complete payment contract. The selected applicant’s offer letter and the current batch notice should supply the due dates, payment mode, refund and cancellation terms, and any charges that apply in special cases.
A practical budget should reserve funds for both the one-time payment and the four installment totals. Because the table includes room, mess and laundry charges, adding a second hostel or meal estimate to the same period would double-count those listed items. Conversely, do not assume every personal expense is included: the published package names the listed charges, books/materials and laptop, but does not promise coverage of travel, personal supplies, device repairs, or every optional campus purchase. These are planning categories to verify with KSOM, not extra fees asserted by the school.
The FAQ’s 2027 total matches the detailed 2026-28 grand total, but that match alone does not establish that the next batch has identical individual components or due dates. Before accepting an offer, request the current 2027-29 fee circular and confirm the amount required to hold the seat, the dates of later installments, and the written treatment of hostel and mess charges if a student leaves early.
KSOM’s fee page describes a scholarship worth 50% of tuition fees for specified high-performing candidates. The listed categories are the top five students in KIITEE Management 2027; candidates scoring at least the 80th percentile in centre-based or offline CAT/XAT; and candidates at or above the 95th percentile in centre-based or offline MAT for the December 2026 or February 2027 tests.
The phrase “tuition fees” is the important limit. The school does not say that the scholarship halves the entire ₹18,00,620 package. Hostel, mess, development, activities, administration, books, laptop and other non-tuition items remain separate components in the published fee schedule. Do not subtract 50% from the grand total when estimating your net cost. Also do not assume that a percentile from an online or differently dated test qualifies: the page specifies centre-based/offline CAT and XAT, and names two MAT sittings.
The scholarship page gives categories but does not state a scholarship application form, renewal conditions, selection tie-breaks or the payment timing of the waiver. The FAQ also lists eligibility categories, but applicants should confirm how the award is credited against the current batch’s tuition installments and what happens if a candidate changes the accepted test score after applying. An award should be counted in a personal budget only after KSOM confirms eligibility and the amount in writing.
If you meet more than one listed condition, ask whether the categories are alternatives or whether any can be combined; the published page does not promise stacking. The school’s current fee and scholarship page should be rechecked before relying on a 2027-28 scholarship, because test sittings, thresholds and award terms can change by intake.
Before you pay, save the current offer letter and ask for a written 2027-29 fee sheet. Check whether it confirms the ₹18,00,620 figure shown in the MBA FAQ, itemises tuition and residential charges, and gives each due date. The official detailed page is labelled 2026-28, so its installment values should not automatically be treated as the next batch’s contract. If KSOM changes the schedule, use the newer batch-specific document for the amount and due dates.
Ask the admissions office to clarify four points that the public fee table does not answer: whether any caution or security deposit is payable; which parts of the fee are refundable after withdrawal and by what deadline; whether any other mandatory charges are assessed after admission; and how an eligible scholarship is applied to tuition installments. The page does not establish that such extra charges exist, nor does it give a universal refund rule. The questions are there to help you obtain the actual offer terms rather than add unsupported amounts to the cost.
KSOM says candidates seeking an education loan may approach the SBI KIIT Branch for an online approval facility. That is a lender contact route, not a guarantee of loan sanction or a statement that the loan covers every fee component. Compare the lender’s margin, interest, moratorium, security and repayment conditions with your offer letter. Keep the admission payment, each installment and any scholarship confirmation in separate lines in your budget so that a tuition waiver is not mistaken for a full package discount.
For the official totals, inclusions and scholarship criteria, consult the KSOM fees and scholarship page and the MBA FAQ. Contact KSOM if the FAQ’s 2027 total and the 2026-28 itemised schedule are being applied to a 2027-29 offer without a current written schedule.
If you expect a scholarship, keep the exam scorecard, test edition and test mode available when asking for confirmation. A headline percentile from another session is not enough to establish the listed category, and the page gives no promise that awards can be combined. Ask whether the tuition waiver will be credited before or after each installment and request the revised balance in writing. Treat the answer as a personal award calculation, not as a change to the published package total.
