Yes, each year BITS Pilani increases their tuition fees. According to the official notice, for the students of the 2020-21 batch, the tuition fee will increase 9% each subsequent year, i.e. 2021-22, 2022-23, etc. The tuition fee will increase at this rate each year unless the Govt. announces any tax/levy, in which case all students will be notified regarding any change.
Yes, every private institute is bound to increase its fees with time, and so is BITS Pilani.
Being a private institute, BITS Pilani does not receive any kind of funding from outside, like IITs and NITs.
Although BITS Pilani provides an excellent set of facilities inside the campus, the overall fee is too high for most students to afford. For students from middle-class families, it is too tough to bear the B.Tech fees of BITS Pilani, even with an education loan. Even after several protests about the fees of BITS, there is no chance of a decrease in fees in the future.
