| Course | Level | Duration | Annual fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| MBA Management & Business | Postgraduate | 2 years | ₹57,750Karnataka GO 2025-26 · per year · MBA — private un-aided colleges |

Annual fee for a seat allotted through KEA counselling (General Merit), per the Karnataka Examinations Authority provisional fee structure for 2026-27, dated 10 July 2026. It includes university and other prescribed fees. SC/ST candidates with family income up to ₹10 lakh pay nil, and Category-1 candidates up to ₹2.5 lakh pay a reduced fee. Un-aided colleges fall into two tiers (₹1,20,320 or ₹1,30,320) which KEA does not publish college-wise, so the lower tier is shown. A COMEDK or management-quota seat at the same college costs considerably more and is set separately.
This is the fee the state has notified for a KEA-counselled seat at a college of this type — not a figure this college has published. Management, COMEDK and NRI seats at the same college are priced separately by the college and are not published here. See the full published grid.

Admission to the B.E./B.Tech programmes is through KCET and COMEDK UGET counselling, along with a management/COMEDK-linked quota handled directly by the college. M.Tech admission is based on PGCET counselling or a valid GATE score, while MBA admission follows PGCET or other approved management entrance routes.
