NEET coaching costs roughly ₹15,000–45,000 online and ₹60,000–1,80,000 for a classroom year, and the spread is driven mostly by city and batch size, not by teaching quality. Kota and Delhi sit at the top; Patna, Lucknow and Indore run 30–40% lower for the same syllabus and frequently the same franchise. Add ₹1,00,000–1,60,000 a year for hostel and mess if you relocate — that is often larger than the tuition itself.
We hold verified fee data across NEET institutes and cities, so these are our listing figures rather than brochure estimates.

The costs that are not tuition #
| Cost | Typical (per year) |
|---|---|
| Hostel + mess (if relocating) | ₹1,00,000 – ₹1,60,000 |
| Study material | Often included; verify |
| Test series | ₹2,000 – ₹6,000 if billed separately |
| Travel home | ₹10,000 – ₹30,000 |
For a Kota year, total outgo commonly exceeds ₹2,50,000 once living costs are included. Families budgeting on the tuition figure alone are routinely caught out.
- Ask what is excluded. Test series, study material and doubt-support sessions are often billed separately.
- Two-year foundation programmes typically cost 1.6–1.8× the one-year fee, not double.
- Dropper batches are usually priced at or slightly above the one-year fee, not lower.
- In smaller cities, confirm whether a national-brand centre is a franchise — faculty quality varies far more between franchises than between cities.
- Scholarships based on a screening test are widely available and rarely advertised. Ask.
