FIITJEE: Fee refund process to start for students hit by 2025 disruptions
Aatif Ammad | February 23, 2026 | 10:48 PM IST | 1 min read
Refunds will be processed centrally by the Delhi corporate office from late June 2026, with detailed communication to parents by mid-June.
Forum for Indian Institute of Technology Joint Entrance Examination (FIITJEE) has announced that it will begin processing proportionate fee refunds for students affected by the 2025 disruption of offline classes at certain centres in Delhi-NCR region.
The refunds will be handled directly by the FIITJEE Corporate Office in Delhi, with processing scheduled to commence from late June 2026, the official statement read.
The move follows the shutdown of several FIITJEE centres across Delhi-NCR in January 2025 , including in Noida and Ghaziabad, after teachers reportedly resigned and parents alleged non-refund of advance fees.
At the time, parents filed complaints seeking refunds, and the institute attributed the closures to mismanagement and desertion by managing partners.
FIITJEE: Refund by June 15
In its latest communication to parents, FIITJEE said it will share specific refund details with affected families by June 15. A dedicated email mechanism will be activated from June 16, for parents seeking clarifications or follow-up regarding refund status. The institute stated that the refund process will be centrally managed to ensure uniformity and accountability, with no involvement of local centres.
The institute said the 2025 disruptions led to the suspension of in-person classes at certain locations. During that period, FIITJEE shifted students to its online platform, FIITJEE eSchool, to continue academic instruction.
Alongside the refund announcement, FIITJEE outlined a restructuring plan under what it calls the “FIITJEE Universe” framework. Under this model, centres will operate in collaboration with entrepreneurs through a structured licensing arrangement. The institute stated that this approach is aimed at stabilising operations and strengthening systems following last year’s disruptions .
The refund commitment comes more than a year after the 2025 centre closures that left thousands of students and parents uncertain about their academic continuity and fee payments.
