This differs for Indian students, however, as the cost varies by program. Undergraduate fees will vary from £18,000 to £26,000 per year or INR 18 Lacs to INR 26 lakh. For postgrad programs, fees are from £20,000 to £35,000 a year, that is around INR 20 Lacs to INR 35 lakh. Also, they need to bear living costs, which is about £1,000 to £1,500 a month, approximately INR 1 Lacs to INR 1.5 lakh. So the overall cost for a year may be anywhere between INR 20 Lacs and INR 40 lakh, or more, depending on the course and lifestyle.
