IIM MBA Fees Compared: Every Printed Two-Year Total, 2026

All 17 IIM two-year MBA fees printed by the institutes — Rs 17.90L (Rohtak) to Rs 27L (Calcutta) — each linked to the official page or signed PDF, re-read 11 September 2026.

By Piyush Agarwal, 10 years in direct admissions counselling · Reviewed by Piyush Agarwal · Last verified 11 September 2026 · every claim linked to its source · Latest change: Initial publication. Every fee below was re-opened today on the official source: twelve pages and PDFs read directly, and five signed scanned fee notices (Lucknow, Amritsar, Kozhikode, Ranchi, Sambalpur MBA-BA) read from the rendered documents. IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Sambalpur's flagship MBA and IIM Shillong publish no fee and are listed as disclosed gaps, not guessed (Sept 2026)

The short answer

As of 11 September 2026, seventeen IIMs publish a two-year MBA fee, from IIM Rohtak's Rs 17,90,000 to IIM Calcutta's Rs 27,00,000 — every figure re-read today on the institute's own page or signed fee PDF. IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Sambalpur and IIM Shillong print no flagship fee. Mess charges and refundable deposits usually sit outside the printed total.

The sticker price of a two-year IIM MBA in 2026 spans Rs 17,90,000 to Rs 27,00,000 — a Rs 9.1 lakh gap between the cheapest and costliest printed totals. This page collects every IIM fee we could re-open on the institute’s own website or signed PDF on 11 September 2026, with the exclusions that change what you actually pay, and names the three institutes that publish nothing at all.

The three that publish nothing

IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Shillong and IIM Sambalpur’s flagship MBA carried no public fee page or PDF when we re-checked on 11 September 2026. Sambalpur does print its MBA-BA fee — Rs 17,25,000 for 2026-28, signed by four officers on 7 May 2026 — which is the only signed Sambalpur fee document in public. For the other two, the reliable move is to request the fee structure from the programmes office in writing. Any site quoting you an exact IIMA PGP total today is guessing or copying a guess.

How to read this table without being misled

Three habits matter more than the ranking itself:

  • Compare like with like. Kashipur’s Rs 20,80,000 already carries the admission fee and caution deposit; Rohtak’s Rs 17,90,000 does not carry mess (Rs 48,000 a year). Exclusion columns move real totals by one to two lakh between institutes that look adjacent.
  • Mind the batch year. Ranchi’s Rs 19.20 lakh is the 2025-27 print and Calcutta’s Rs 27 lakh is the 2024-26 structure — the newest those institutes publish. Fees typically rise a few percent between batches, so treat older-batch documents as a floor, not a quote.
  • Waivers sit beside the fee, not inside it. Nagpur prints twenty full-tuition scholarships, Kashipur a full yearly tuition waiver for 10% of the batch, Trichy a 50% academic-fee waiver for 2% of registrants, and Udaipur need-based waivers under a Rs 6,00,000 household-income line. The IIM scholarships map tracks every printed one.

If your constraint is total budget rather than brand, the budget-band comparison places these totals beside verified private and university options from Rs 23,945 a year upward — and if you are still choosing which exam unlocks which IIM, the IIM selection process explainer maps that side of the table.

Straight answers

Which IIM has the lowest printed MBA fee in 2026?
IIM Rohtak, at Rs 17,90,000 for the 2026-28 PGP (Batch 17) — Rs 8,95,000 per year in the institute's signed fee PDF, with mess at Rs 48,000 a year extra. IIM Bodh Gaya is close behind at Rs 17,96,000 for 2026-28, plus deposits and mess.
Which IIM has the highest printed MBA fee?
IIM Calcutta, at Rs 27,00,000 — but note that figure is the printed Batch 2024-26 structure, the newest the institute publishes on its MBA page as of 11 September 2026. Among 2026-28 documents, IIM Bangalore's Rs 26,00,000 is the highest printed total.
Do the printed IIM fees include hostel and mess?
Usually hostel is inside and mess is outside, but it varies line by line — that is exactly why the table flags exclusions. IIM Bangalore's Rs 26,00,000 includes hostel rent but not the Rs 30,000-a-term mess advance; IIM Kozhikode's Rs 23,50,000 includes hostel with mess on a refundable Rs 40,000-a-term deposit; IIM Raipur's Rs 20,08,000 excludes mess (Rs 16,620 per trimester) and a Rs 30,000 caution deposit. Read the exclusion column before comparing two institutes.
Why do some IIMs not publish their fee?
Three of the twenty we track — IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Sambalpur (flagship MBA) and IIM Shillong — carried no public fee page or PDF when re-checked on 11 September 2026. The honest move is to ask the institute's programmes office for the signed fee document; the dishonest move, common on aggregator sites, is to quote a number with no source. We list the gap openly rather than fill it.
Do IIM fees include scholarships or waivers?
The printed totals are gross figures; several IIMs print waivers beside them — IIM Nagpur's twenty full-tuition scholarships, IIM Kashipur's full yearly tuition waiver for 10% of the batch, IIM Trichy's 50% AFWS waiver for 2% of registrants, and IIM Amritsar's full-tuition-year scholarships are all in print. Our IIM scholarships and fee waivers map lists every one we could verify.
Is there a management quota at any IIM that changes the fee?
No. Every IIM is an Institute of National Importance admitting through CAT and a published formula, and no IIM publishes a paid management or institute-level channel. The only different-priced channels in print are statutory ones — NRI or foreign-candidate tables — and affirmative-action supernumerary channels at the same fee. Anyone quoting a special paid IIM seat is describing something that does not exist in writing.
