Overview — total tuition and academic year
The total tuition fee for LBSIM Delhi's flagship two‑year PGDM (general and all specialisations) for the academic cycle cited is ₹17.25 lakh (total for the programme) for a General category seat; this figure is reported for the 2026–27 / 2027–29 admissions cycle in multiple institute and public sources updated in 2026–2026. The institute's published fee document and recent LBSIM pages list ₹17.25L as the tuition for the PGDM programmes.
Hostel charges are not included in the tuition total and are shown separately by the institute. LBSIM's published hostel guidance lists a first‑year hostel fee of ₹2,40,000 (plus a ₹10,000 refundable security deposit) and a second‑year hostel charge of ₹2,00,000; other campus sources note a two‑year hostel package of ₹4.5 lakh including a refundable deposit for two years. These hostel figures and the tuition total are reflected in LBSIM's own fee page and supporting third‑party profiles updated in 2026–10.
Below table lists the primary items readers most often need at a glance with the source year shown.
Item | Amount (INR) | Applicability/Category | Source/Year |
|---|---|---|---|
Total PGDM tuition fee | ₹17,25,000 | General quota, all PGDM specialisations | Institute brochure / PGDM fees page, 2026 |
Hostel fee — Year 1 | ₹2,40,000 | Optional for Delhi‑NCR residents; mandatory for outstation students per LBSIM notes | LBSIM admissions page / FAQ, 2026 |
Hostel refundable security | ₹10,000 | Per student, refundable | LBSIM admissions page / FAQ, 2026 |
Interpretation: the headline tuition figure to budget for is ₹17.25 lakh for the full two‑year PGDM (General seat) in the 2026 published fee schedule; add accommodation costs if you will use institute hostels. Exact instalment dates, one‑time admission charges and scholarship rules are covered in later sections.
Tuition fee — total, per year and instalment schedule
LBSIM Delhi fees for the two-year flagship PGDM list the total tuition fee as ₹17.25 lakh for a General seat for the full programme (reported for the 2026–28 / 2027–29 cycles). Sources used below are LBSIM’s official PGDM fee notice and recent institute pages updated in 2026.
The institute charges tuition across the two academic years; published materials state a two-year total rather than a detailed per-trimester breakdown in the public fee documents. Where LBSIM provides instalment details it confirms an annual instalment plan: an initial deposit on admission followed by subsequent instalments due before each academic year begins. Exact instalment amounts are shown in the institute brochure/fee PDF and the PGDM admissions page.
Below table reproduces the tuition component and the supported due schedule as published by LBSIM and corroborated by recent 2026 updates. Each number and timing cell is taken from the institute’s fee communication dated 2026-08-30 and related 2026 pages.
Tuition component | Amount (INR) | Due (term/year) | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
Total tuition fee (PGDM – General, General quota) | ₹17.25 Lakh | For full programme (2 years) | Published in LBSIM PGDM fees page and institute brochure (2026 update). |
Annual / instalment structure | Paid in annual instalments | Institute states fees are distributed into structured annual instalments; exact per-instalment figures given in fee PDF. |
Practical interpretation: budget for ₹17.25 lakh tuition and expect to pay an admission deposit followed by annual instalments; retrieve the detailed per-instalment figures from the LBSIM PGDM fee PDF linked on the institute’s admissions pages for exact deadlines and amounts.
One-time academic charges & mandatory fees
LBSIM Delhi fees for the PGDM include specific one-time academic and administrative charges payable at admission. The institute’s official materials and recent fee documents list refundable security and other compulsory levies alongside tuition; where an exact number is published, it is reproduced below for the relevant academic cycle.
Below is a concise table of one-time charges supported by LBSIM sources (2026 update on the institute website and the LBSIM PGDM fees page).
Charge name | Amount (INR) | Refundable (Y/N) | When paid |
|---|---|---|---|
Refundable Security / Caution Deposit | ₹10,000 | Y | At admission |
One-time (Management/Alumni/Application) Fees | ₹67,000 - ₹86,500 | N | At admission / first payment |
Application fee (early / regular) | ₹1,500 up to expected November 2026; ₹2,200 thereafter | N | On application |
Interpretation: the ₹10,000 security deposit is explicitly mentioned in the institute’s infrastructure/hostel and fee documents as refundable. The larger one-time bracket (₹67,000 - ₹86,500) appears in third‑party fee breakdowns and LBSIM reporting as the combined set of mandatory non‑tuition charges (registration, management/administration fee, alumni fee and exam/assessment charges) payable with the programme fee; the exact itemisation and the chosen amount within the range are published in the institute fee PDF for the specific admission offer and therefore vary by year/seat type.
The application fee schedule is stated in LBSIM’s admissions notices (updated 24 Sep 2026 and admission pages).
Practical pointer: keep the ₹10,000 refundable deposit receipt and the institute fee PDF after admission — refunds follow the institute’s terms and published timelines. For sponsored or management‑quota offers the one‑time non‑tuition charges may differ; check the offer letter’s fee annexure.
Hostel & accommodation charges, types and rules
LBSIM Delhi provides separate AC twin-sharing hostels for men and women; accommodation is mandatory for students coming from outside Delhi‑NCR and optional for local residents. The institute’s published material lists hostel charges for the PGDM programme and refundable security deposits.
Below table summarises the published hostel options and charges where figures are available from LBSIM notices and the official fee page.
Accommodation type | Charge per year (INR) | Deposit (INR) | Mandatory for (outstation/local) | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
AC twin-sharing (hostel) | ₹2,40,000 | ₹10,000 | Outstation students | Includes furniture, Wi‑Fi, mess facility; allotment on first‑come, first‑served basis (LBSIM FAQ, 2026). |
The table above uses figures published by LBSIM and secondary profiles updated in 2026. The institute’s admissions FAQ explicitly states hostel fees as Rs. 2,40,000 per year for the first year and Rs. 2,00,000 per year for the second year in one notice; the campus infrastructure page and fee summaries also record a two‑year hostel package of ₹4,50,000 including a ₹10,000 refundable deposit.
Where the institute lists both per‑year rates and a two‑year consolidated amount, the single‑year ₹2,40,000 figure is the published annual charge used for the table.
Mess charges: LBSIM notes mess services are part of hostel facilities; the institute’s public pages describe a mess plan but do not publish a standard annual mess fee—students are billed through the hostel provider.
Deposit refund: the ₹10,000 security deposit is refundable on vacating, per LBSIM infrastructure notes (updated Sep 2026).
Allocation rules: hostels allotted on a first‑come, first‑served basis; local students may apply but are not required to stay (LBSIM FAQ, 2026).
LBSIM’s published hostel charges and deposit figures were updated on or before 24 September 2026 and 30 September 2026 across official and institute blog pages; confirm any later changes on LBSIM’s official fee PDF before payment.
Scholarships, concessions and sponsored seats
LBSIM Delhi offers merit-cum-means scholarships and a small number of named awards; scholarships are applied after admission and are not part of the upfront tuition. The institute public materials for 2026–27 list merit-cum-means scholarships of ₹1,00,000 each and state that up to 15 scholarships are awarded annually.
Below is a concise table of the scholarship awards and selection basis reported in the institute and public profiles.
Scholarship name | Eligibility | Value (INR) | Number of awards | Application/Selection |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Smt. Lalita Shastri Scholarship | Merit-cum-means (PGDM students) | ₹1,00,000 | Institute selection; merit & financial need (reported) | |
Manuj Chopra Scholarship | Merit-cum-means (PGDM students) | ₹1,00,000 | Institute selection; merit & financial need (reported) | |
Tessy Thomas Scholarship | Merit-cum-means (PGDM students) | ₹1,00,000 | Institute selection; merit & financial need (reported) |
The available sources state that LBSIM awards up to 15 scholarships of ₹1,00,000 annually (named and unnamed) to PGDM students; these are merit-cum-means and require a post-admission application or institute nomination.
Sponsored seats: LBSIM notes the presence of a corporate-sponsored quota but does not publish standard fee concessions or fixed award amounts in the public fee documents reviewed. Candidates admitted under corporate/sponsored seats should request the sponsor-specific fee terms and bonding/placement conditions from the institute at offer stage.
Practical note: request the written scholarship offer and its disbursal schedule at acceptance; scholarships are typically adjusted against the second instalment or notified as a fee waiver.
Document tip: prepare income proof, previous academic records and the admission offer when applying for merit-cum-means awards.

Fee variations: category-wise, management quota, NRI & international
LBSIM Delhi fees vary by seat category: the institute publishes a tuition of ₹17.25 lakh for the PGDM General (general quota) for the 2026-27 reporting period; management‑quota and higher‑fee seats are published separately by the institute and third‑party sources.
Below table reproduces fee lines supported in the supplied sources and their provenance.
Category | Tuition (INR) | Notes (management / NRI) | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
General (Domestic) | ₹17.25 Lakh | Standard PGDM tuition, applies to all four PGDM specialisations | LBSIM PGDM Fees page (2026-02-06; updated 2026-08-30) / MBAUniverse (updated Sep 30, 2026) |
Management quota (domestic) | ₹22.90 Lakh | Higher management‑quota fee reported by public sources | Collegedunia (updated Oct 06, 2026) |
Hostel (per year) | ₹2.40 Lakh up to | Hostel charged separately; LBSIM publishes hostel year charges up to ₹2.40 lakh/year | Collegedunia (Oct 06, 2026) / LBSIM FAQ (Forms site) |
Interpretation: the institute maintains a single published tuition for general domestic PGDM seats (₹17.25 L). Management‑quota seats carry a higher published tuition (₹22.90 L), and hostel charges are billed separately (public sources list up to ₹2.40 LPA or programme pages indicate two‑year hostel packages of ₹4.4–4.8 L across listings).
Category concessions: supplied sources state that reservation or concessions follow standard categories (SC/ST/OBC/EWS) for admissions but do not publish separate reduced tuition figures in the available notices; therefore this section reports no confirmed category‑wise tuition differentials beyond the management quota and NRI/hostel lines above.
NRI & international: none of the primary LBSIM pages supplied a dated published NRI or international‑student tuition figure within the last 60 days. Collegedunia and Shiksha mention management‑quota and total fee ranges but do not offer a certified NRI fee schedule in the available extracts. Applicants with NRI/sponsored status should consult official admission office notices for specific rates.
Payment modes, instalments, deadlines and penalties
LBSIM Delhi fees for the PGDM programme are payable through institute-specified online and bank channels; the institute divides the total tuition into staged instalments with an initial deposit on admission and subsequent payments before each academic year/term. The institute's official fee page and the 2026 fee blog confirm a two-year instalment structure and an initial deposit on confirmation.
Below table summarises supported payment methods, processing times and essential notes where LBSIM provides explicit guidance.
Payment method | Details | Processing time | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
Online payment (card/NETBANKING/UPI) | Institute portal/authorized payment gateways | Immediate to 48 hours | Used for application and fee instalments per LBSIM admission pages |
Bank transfer / Demand draft | Payments to institute account as instructed in fee document | 2–5 working days | Bank details and challan provided by admissions office; retain proof |
Education loan disbursal | Direct to institute on sanction; LBSIM provides documentation support | Varies by bank (days to weeks) | LBSIM lists tied-up banks and assists with loan papers |
Practical interpretation: pay the initial deposit immediately on receiving the admission offer to secure the seat. Second instalments are due before the start of Year 1 and Year 2 as per the institute’s instalment schedule; the official fee page and 2026 fee blog state instalments but do not publish exact calendar due-dates — candidates receive term-specific due dates with the offer letter.
Late payment and refund rules follow AICTE/UGC-aligned timelines; LBSIM's terms & conditions page (last updated 24 September 2026) and the 2026 fee blog (updated 30 August 2026) describe that withdrawals and refunds are governed by those norms and that an initial deposit is required at confirmation. Keep proof of all transactions and request bank/loan disbursal letters early to avoid late-payment penalties.
deadline: Application fee concessions run until expected November 2026 (revised thereafter) per institute notices; instalment due-dates are issued with offer letters.
Refund & cancellation policy — timelines and deductions
LBSIM Delhi applies refund and cancellation rules for admitted students that follow AICTE/UGC-linked norms; refunds depend on the timing of withdrawal and specific fees already collected. The institute’s published terms and the 2026 PGDM fee document set the framework for deposits, instalments and refunds.
The table below summarises institute-stated events and the usual financial consequence where explicit figures are published.
Event | Refund % or Deduction | Deadline for request | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
Withdrawal before programme start (admitted candidates) | Governed by AICTE/UGC norms; institute follows published refund policy | As per admission offer timelines / before programme commencement | Amount refunded varies with timing; LBSIM states refunds follow AICTE/UGC rules (LBSIM terms updated 24 Sept 2026) |
Cancellation after programme start / mid-session | Proportionate deductions per applicable rules | Request date determines deduction slab | Refunds processed subject to institutional deductions and academic dues per LBSIM terms |
Forfeiture of caution/security deposit | Refundable subject to clearance; security deposit amount listed in hostel/fee schedules | On completion/exit of hostel | Hostel deposit (e.g. ₹10,000) cited in LBSIM hostel notes and fee pages |
Practical interpretation: candidates who withdraw early can expect a refund governed by UGC/AICTE timelines; late withdrawals usually incur larger deductions and non-refundable components (application, registration, and consumed academic services). LBSIM’s Terms & Conditions page was last updated on expected September 2026 and the PGDM fee explainer was updated on expected August 2026, establishing the institute’s adherence to statutory refund norms.
caution: Refund amounts and deadlines change with notified admission offers; rely on the admission offer letter and the institute’s published fee/terms documents for the exact deduction slabs.
Education loans & bank partnerships — process and documents
LBSIM Delhi assists students with education loans through formal tie-ups with multiple banks; the institute provides standard loan support documents and a college support letter to speed processing. Students typically use these facilities to fund the ₹17.25 lakh PGDM tuition (2026 reporting period).
Below is a concise table of the type of support LBSIM lists and the common documents students must furnish. The institute’s official pages note that details and partner bank lists are published on the LBSIM website (latest site notices updated 24 September 2026 and fee-guide pages updated 30 September 2026).
Bank/Partner | Type of support | Documents required | Contact/Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
Nationalised and private banks (listed on LBSIM portal) | Term education loans; sanction & disbursal support | Admission offer letter; institute fee structure/ invoice; ID proof; address proof; academic records; parent/guardian income proof; collateral papers (if applicable) | Admission office issues support letters; see institute loan page (updated 24 Sep 2026) |
Practical loan process steps:
Collect the official offer letter and fee invoice from LBSIM after seat confirmation.
Check the LBSIM loan partners list on the admissions or education-loan page and shortlist banks that finance the program.
Apply online to the bank(s) with scanned documents; submit originals at branch when requested.
Request the college for a loan support letter and fee breakup (these are standard documents LBSIM issues).
After sanction, follow up with the bank for document completion to avoid hold-ups in disbursal before term start.
Practical pointers to speed disbursal:
Submit complete income and KYC documents; missing income proofs cause the commonest delays.
Use banks with branch presence near Dwarka to reduce physical verification time.
Ask LBSIM admissions for the exact fee invoice format the bank requires.
What changes each year — fee revision, seat-based differences and timeline
LBSIM Delhi fees for the PGDM programme are reviewed annually; tuition and certain mandatory academic charges are subject to revision, while statutory rules and some deposits remain fixed for the session. This paragraph summarises which elements typically change and which are stable so applicants can project costs.
Below is a concise table showing commonly revised items and who they affect, with where to verify the latest numbers.
Item | Typical change | Who it affects | Where to check |
|---|---|---|---|
Tuition fee (PGDM total) | Yes | All new admits (General quota) | LBSIM Delhi official fee PDF / updated blog (2026-08-30) |
Hostel charges | Yes | Outstation students opting for campus hostel | LBSIM hostel FAQ on institute site and PGDM admissions page (2026 sources) |
One-time refundable deposits (security/caution) | No | Students paying hostel/registration deposits | LBSIM hostel/fees notes (2026) |
Scholarship allocations (count & amount) | Yes | Eligible meritorious / need-based students | LBSIM scholarship notices and placement/fees blog (2026) |
Interpretation: the verified sources show the ₹17.25 lakh PGDM tuition figure for a General seat in the 2026 brochure and accompanying blog updates (published 2026-02-06, updated 2026-08-30). Hostel charges and the two-year hostel totals are published (hostel fee reported as ₹2.40 lakh per year / first-year ₹2.40 lakh + ₹10,000 refundable security in institute FAQs and supplementary pages). Refund rules and payment schedule wording in the institute terms and fee pages are updated in September 2026.
Practical projection rule: treat tuition and hostel line items as annual-policy decisions by the institute; budget for a modest annual increase and re-check the official LBSIM Delhi fee PDF before paying each instalment.
update: LBSIM published the PGDM fee brochure and blog update in 2026 (last update 2026-08-30); always confirm the latest fee PDF on the institute page during the admission cycle.
Important Points
The LBSIM Delhi fees picture for the PGDM (2026-28/2027-29 cycle) is straightforward: tuition ₹17.25L for a general PGDM seat (reported in multiple official and secondary sources for the 2026/2027 disclosures), with hostel charged separately (hostel up to ₹2.40L per year or two‑year hostel packages reported as ₹2.4L first year + ₹2.0L second year in institute materials).
Confirm the programme: all four PGDM streams carry the same ₹17.25L tuition for a general seat as published by LBSIM and corroborated by reputable college-data sources (2026 updates).
Payment structure: institute material and the official fees page describe an instalment system—initial deposit on confirmation followed by term/annual instalments; exact instalment dates appear in the LBSIM fee PDF or admission offer.
One‑time and mandatory charges: security/caution deposit and administrative fees are included in published summaries (one‑time totals reported between ₹67K–₹86.5K on secondary sources for overall programme charges). Review the official fee PDF for line‑by‑line values.
Hostel rules: accommodation is mandatory for outstation students and optional for Delhi‑NCR residents; twin‑sharing AC rooms, mess and basic amenities are listed on the institute pages.
Scholarships: LBSIM publishes merit‑cum‑means scholarships — up to 15 scholarships of ₹1L each annually on record; apply after admission using the institute’s scholarship process.
Management/NRI seats: a higher management quota fee (reported as ₹22.90L total) exists in public college listings; check your admission offer for category‑wise applicability.
Refunds & withdrawals: governed by AICTE/UGC norms and LBSIM’s published policy; timelines and deductions follow the institute’s fee brochure and terms page.
Education loans: LBSIM lists bank tie‑ups and provides loan documentation support; use the institute loan letter and fee schedule when applying to banks.
Interpretation: treat ₹17.25L as the base tuition figure when planning finances, add hostel charges if you are outstation, and account for one‑time administrative deposits and the possibility of higher management‑quota fees. Use the institute fee PDF and admission offer for instalment dates and refund slabs.
