Candidates applying for IPU CET must pay the prescribed application fee during the online registration process. The fee is generally charged for each programme applied for and is separate from the tuition fee payable after admission.

According to the GGSIPU Admission Brochure for the 2026–27 academic session, the application fee was ₹2,500 per programme. Applicable taxes and payment gateway or service charges were additional. The fee was non-refundable.

IPU CET Application Fee Structure

Important: ₹2,500 is the application fee prescribed for the 2026–27 admission session. The IPU CET 2027 application fee has not yet been announced. The fee may be revised for the 2027–28 academic session.

Application Fee for Multiple Programmes

Candidates interested in applying for multiple programmes should understand that the application fee is charged separately for each programme.

The above calculation excludes applicable taxes and service charges and is based on the 2026–27 fee structure.

Accepted Modes of Application Fee Payment

Candidates can complete the application fee payment through the online payment gateway integrated into the admission portal.

Depending on the payment options made available during registration, the methods may include:

After completing the transaction, candidates should verify that the payment status is successful and that the application has been properly submitted.

Is the IPU CET Application Fee Refundable?

No. As per the 2026–27 admission brochure, the application fee of ₹2,500 was non-refundable.

Candidates should therefore verify their programme selection, CET code and eligibility before making the payment. Submitting the application form and paying the fee does not guarantee admission to the selected programme.

Application Fee vs Counselling Fee

Candidates should understand the difference between the initial application fee and the fees payable during the subsequent admission process.

For the 2026–27 academic session, GGSIPU displayed a notice stating that there was no separate counselling participation fee for admission. However, candidates allotted seats could still be required to pay the prescribed part academic fee under the applicable admission procedure. The 2027–28 payment structure is awaited.
