Budgeting for IIM Calcutta? Here is the straight answer on IIM Calcutta MBA fees 2027: IIM Calcutta has not yet published the MBA fee for the 2027–29 batch. The last widely reported two-year fee is about ₹27 lakh, but the final amount, the payment schedule and what it covers will come in your offer letter after CAT 2026. This guide separates what is official from what is only reported, and lists the extra costs to plan for.

| Item | What IIM Calcutta’s site shows |
|---|---|
| MBA fee, batch 2027–29 | Not published on the MBA or admission pages |
| Admission policy, batch 2027–29 | Published; covers eligibility, shortlisting and selection, with no fee table |
| Selection basis | CAT 2026 score plus other parameters |
| Programme format | Two-year, full-time, residential |

We found no 2027–29 fee breakup for the MBA on IIM Calcutta’s public pages, so be careful with any page that claims one.
The ₹27 Lakh Figure: Reported, Not Confirmed for 2027
Third-party sources have reported about ₹27 lakh for the two-year MBA across recent batches. Treat it as a planning estimate. The figures people quote are often mixed up, so here is how they differ:
| Programme | Duration | Figure you will see | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| MBA (flagship) | 2 years | About ₹27 lakh | Reported for recent batches; 2027–29 not announced |
| MBAEx | 1 year | ₹33,50,000 | Official, 2025–26 batch |
Do not compare the MBA with the MBAEx. They are different programmes with different fees.
IIM Calcutta MBA Fees 2027: Hidden Costs to Plan For
IIM Calcutta’s MBA pages do not list exclusions, so use these as questions for your offer letter. Every row except education loan interest comes from IIM Calcutta’s own pages.
| Cost | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Food, electricity and personal expenses | IIM Calcutta’s MBAEx fee page says these are not covered by the programme fee. Ask whether the MBA fee covers them. |
| Commitment fee and deposits | The MBAEx schedule asks for a ₹2,00,000 commitment fee at offer acceptance and a ₹60,000 refundable security deposit. Ask what the MBA schedule is. |
| Registration paperwork | IIM Calcutta lists an affidavit, a medical fitness certificate, an anti-ragging undertaking and a drug-testing disclosure. Notarisation, doctor visits or lab tests may cost money. |
| Summer internship | Every MBA student must complete an 8-week industry internship between the first and second year. Plan for relocation and living costs. |
| Late documents | If final marksheets are not submitted by 30 September 2027, registration is cancelled automatically, so your seat can be lost. |
| Education loan interest | General point, not from IIM Calcutta: interest usually builds up during the course, so compare lenders before you accept the offer. |
Five Questions to Ask Before You Pay
Email the admissions office (mbaadmissions@iimcal.ac.in) or check your offer letter for these answers in writing:
- What is the total programme fee, and in how many instalments?
- Does it include the hostel room, course material and study tours?
- Are mess and food billed separately, and what are the usual amounts?
- Which deposits are refundable, and when?
- What happens to the fee if I withdraw?
When Will IIM Calcutta Announce the 2027–29 Fee?
Admission to the 2027–29 batch runs through CAT 2026, which is on 29 November 2026. Fee details usually arrive with the admission offer, so expect them after the interview stage rather than before. Check IIM Calcutta’s MBA programme page and the 2027–29 admission policy for updates.
