Jaipuria Lucknow vs Noida vs Jaipur vs Indore: Fees Compared (2026-28)
Jaipuria's four PGDM campuses on one official fee table: Lucknow Rs 15.25L, Noida Rs 16.5L, Jaipur Rs 14.75L, Indore Rs 13.5L for 2026-28 — same exams, same application, honest differences.
The short answer
As of August 2026, Jaipuria's official 2026-28 fee table reads Lucknow Rs 15,25,000, Noida Rs 16,50,000, Jaipur Rs 14,75,000 and Indore Rs 13,50,000 for the same AICTE-approved PGDM, applied to through one common form on CAT, XAT, CMAT, MAT or GMAT — a Rs 3,00,000 spread for the same degree name, published in one PDF.
Most multi-campus B-school groups price each campus on a different page, in a different brochure, with different fine print. Jaipuria does the opposite: one PDF, four campuses, six dated instalments each, to the rupee. We opened that official fee-structure document for 2026-28 on 29 August 2026, and it makes the four-campus decision unusually clean — because the degree name, the AICTE approval, the AACSB accreditation, the exam menu and the application form are identical. What differs is price, city and placement geography.
Next question, once you have shortlisted a campus: how to compare the actual offers, on paper.
The answer first: the official 2026-28 fee table
| Campus | Year 1 | Year 2 | Total (2026-28) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jaipuria Indore | Rs 6,80,000 | Rs 6,70,000 | Rs 13,50,000 |
| Jaipuria Jaipur | Rs 7,50,000 | Rs 7,25,000 | Rs 14,75,000 |
| Jaipuria Lucknow | Rs 7,70,000 | Rs 7,55,000 | Rs 15,25,000 |
| Jaipuria Noida | Rs 8,30,000 | Rs 8,20,000 | Rs 16,50,000 |
Every figure above is a grand total from the official instalment table (the PDF lists each instalment with its due date — for Lucknow: 15 September 2026, 15 December 2026, 15 March 2027, 15 September 2027 and 15 December 2027, with the first instalment set by your offer letter). A Rs 15,000 refundable security deposit applies with the first instalment, GST is extra as notified, and hostel is separate (at Lucknow: Rs 1,35,000 a year for an AC double room on the 2026-27 table).
What is actually identical across campuses
- One application — the common form covers all four campuses and all PGDM variants, with a Rs 1,000 non-refundable entrance fee.
- One exam menu — any valid CAT 2025, XAT 2026, CMAT, MAT or GMAT score, with a 50% graduation bar. No campus-specific test.
- One accreditation stack — AICTE-approved, NBA-accredited PGDM within an AACSB-accredited institution.
- One honest caveat — the published placement record is group-wide (2023-25: highest international Rs 36.6 LPA, highest domestic Rs 22.57 LPA, 275+ recruiters); no campus-level average is published anywhere official.
What actually differs, beyond the fee
City and placement geography. Indore and Jaipur sit in lower-cost education hubs; Noida sits in the Delhi NCR recruiter corridor; Lucknow anchors its region. If your target companies hire regionally — and most first jobs are regional — the metro premium can pay for itself in interview access. If you want the accredited PGDM at the lowest published cost, the official table already answers the question: Indore, Rs 13,50,000.
The method for deciding is the same one we use in the budget-band guide: total published cost first, then city placement access, then nothing else — because on every other published dimension these four are the same institution.
The honest warnings
- No campus-level placement split is published. Any “Noida places better than Indore” claim you hear in a counselling room is anecdote. Ask each campus for its own placed percentage and median package in writing.
- The ‘currently stands’ 2024-26 figures are a live season, not a final report — quote them with that label or not at all.
- A quota offer contradicts the published price list. The fee table is the counter-document: any ‘package’ above a campus’s printed total has no official standing. See our management-quota legality guide for the general law, and agent red flags for the pattern.

WhatsApp a counsellorStraight answers
- Which Jaipuria campus is the cheapest?
- Indore, at Rs 13,50,000 total for the 2026-28 PGDM — Rs 1,75,000 below Lucknow and Rs 3,00,000 below Noida on the official table. The degree name, the AICTE approval, the AACSB accreditation and the common application are identical across campuses; the published differences are fee, city and placement geography.
- Do all four Jaipuria campuses accept the same exams?
- Yes. The common application accepts any valid CAT 2025, XAT 2026, CMAT, MAT or GMAT score for all four campuses, with a 50% graduation bar and an invitation-only interview. There is no campus-specific entrance test.
- Is the fee difference worth paying for Noida or Lucknow?
- It is a placement-geography question, not a quality question. The published placement record is group-wide (2023-25: highest domestic Rs 22.57 LPA, 275+ recruiters), and no campus-level average is published. If your target recruiters hire regionally, the metro campus can be worth its premium; if you want the accredited degree at the lowest published cost, Indore wins on the official numbers alone.
- How are the fees paid?
- Six dated instalments per the official schedule — for Lucknow: 15 September and 15 December 2026, then 15 March, 15 September and 15 December 2027 (the first instalment date is set by your offer letter) — plus a Rs 15,000 refundable security deposit with the first instalment. Hostel is separate and payable annually.
- Can I switch campuses after applying?
- The application records your campus and programme preferences, and offers follow those preferences through the common window. Treat a switch as a fresh preference discussion with the admissions office in the same cycle — the published fee table tells you exactly what each switch costs or saves before you ask.
