In the morning, it offers a variety of breakfast options, and in the afternoon, it offers a variety of lunch options, with both non-veg and veg, and also tea and coffee with snacks. The hostel fee is Rs. 4,000, but the stay is average.

Faculty: Faculty members are well-qualified, experienced, and very helpful. The exams are conducted as semester at the end of a semester, and two series of exams for internal evaluation.
