In government schools , the fees are generally quite nominal or even free. The cost usually covers basic supplies and activities, with additional expenses limited to minimal charges for books, uniforms, and extracurricular activities.

In private schools , the fee structure tends to be higher. For LKG, fees can range from INR 10,000 to INR 60,000 per annum. The exact amount depends on the school's facilities, location, and reputation. Besides the annual fees, there are often additional costs, including one-time admission fees that may range from INR 5,000 to INR 50,000, development charges for infrastructure, and separate costs for books and uniforms. Private schools may also charge fees for extracurricular activities such as sports and arts.
