The NKP Salve Medical College has announced a 7.5% annual hike in MBBS fees, with the fee fixed at Rs 21.75 lakh per annum.
Just a few weeks after the Maharashtra Cabinet approved the proposal for NKP Salve Medical College, Nagpur to become a private university, the medical college has increased its annual MBBS fee from Rs 15.63 lakh to Rs 21.75 lakh along with an annual 7.5% hike. Considering the total cost of the 4.5-year course, the fee has increased by around 59%.
