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.
