NIIT Bhandup / Dombivali / Nerul, Mumbai, Maharashtra, lists fees for 3 programmes. The cheapest is Certificate Courses at ₹4,300, and the most expensive is UG Diploma at ₹85,000. Every figure below is for the whole course, not one year — that single distinction causes more confusion than anything else on a fees page.
What NIIT Bhandup / Dombivali / Nerul charges
Here is the full list. Where a programme shows a range, the fee depends on the specialisation or category you fall into.
| Programme | Duration | Tuition | Hostel & mess | Total course fees |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| UG Diploma | 7 - 18 months | ₹28,000 | — | ₹28,000–₹85,000 |
| Certificate Courses | 2 days - 5 years | ₹4,300 | — | ₹4,300–₹26,350 |
| Certificate Courses | 3 years | ₹1.8 lakh | — | ₹1.8 lakh |
What each part of the fee is
- Tuition — the teaching fee. This is the part scholarships and category waivers usually reduce.
- One-time charges and deposits — admission fee, caution deposit and similar, paid once at the start. Deposits are usually refundable when you leave.
- Hostel and mess — your room and food. Charged separately from tuition, and only if you stay on campus.
- Other charges — exam fees, insurance, library and lab charges, and anything else billed per semester.
Working out your real cost
Take the total course fee, then add the things a fee circular does not: travel home a few times a year, books and equipment for your branch, a laptop if your course needs one, and everyday spending. For most students that adds a meaningful amount on top of the sticker figure over three or four years.
Then take away what you may not have to pay. Category waivers, income-linked concessions, merit scholarships and central schemes can cut tuition substantially — at some institutions to zero. Check the scholarships tab before you assume the full number applies to you.
Before you pay
- Ask which year the fee is for. Fees are revised most years, and a figure published for one batch may not be yours.
- Ask what is refundable. Caution deposits usually are; admission fees usually are not.
- Ask about the payment schedule. Whether it is annual or per semester changes what you need in hand on day one.
- Get it in writing. Whatever you are told at counselling should match the official circular.
About these figures
These fees come from NIIT Bhandup / Dombivali / Nerul's own record and are updated as the college publishes new ones. A dash means that component has not been reported — not that it is free. Fees decide a lot, so confirm the current circular with the college before you pay anything.
