Additional Note to the Fee Structure :
1. Today in the hearing Sister Nirmala, CEO of the Institution, Mr. Thomas Mathew, MD of the Institution, and Mr. Utpal Choudhury, Office Executive of the Institution, are present. From the FRC side it has been pointed out that in the audited Receipt and Payments Account for the year 2022-23, there is an expenditure of Rs.59,02,000 as "poor house construction" and Rs.30,00,000.00 as "transfer to other trust". It is seen that out of the total fees collection of Rs.1.88 Cr. in the year 2022-23, the above-mentioned expenditures of Rs.89,02,000 are not related to the school.
2. According to the school representatives present in the hearing, the school charges fees from students for other social works conducted by the trust.
3. The School has stated in its budget (Estimated Receipt and Payment) for the year 2024-25 two expenditures titled "Land and Building Construction" and "School Development Expenses" amounting to Rs.1,03,37,000.00. The expenses as mentioned in point no.2 are not related to the school, but for other social works, and hence not allowable.
4. The school has proposed an increase of Fees 6.69% in Classes VI & VII, whereas in other classes the proposed increase is up to 25.53%.
Considering the above points the Fee Regulatory Committee decided to allow the increase to 6.69% for all the classes. Due to this, the income of the school will be reduced by Rs.15,26,566/- only from the projected income as submitted.
The excess collected fees are either to be refunded to the students or to be adjusted against the fees yet to be collected.
Conditions: -
1. The total fee determined shall be levied for 2024-2025, academic year.
2. The Institute shall not collect fee amounting to more than one quarter of a year from any student at a time. However, if the Institute desires to collect the fee at a time for the whole year or for more than a quarter, then a rebate of 5% on the total fee will have to be given. Otherwise, it shall be considered as collection of capitation fee and such school shall be liable to prosecution in accordance with the provisions of the said Act.
3. The fee determined shall be displayed by the Institute on its notice board and official website in English and a local language.
4. Any excess fee collected by the Institute shall be refunded to the students/parents within a period of thirty days from the date of this order.
5. In case, the fee determined by the Committee is higher than the actual fee collected by the Institute, then the difference of fee shall be payable by the students/parents within reasonable time.
