The admission details come out in the 1st/2nd week of March. The test normally takes place around end March. Then there is a PI stage which happens around the middle of April. The course starts in the second last week of May.

The course fee is Rs.1,50,000. The lodging charges are Rs.1500/month and boarding (including breakfast, tea, lunch and dinner) is Rs.2500/month.

Since it is a specialized course, it is not AICTE approved, but the batch is highly qualified.

Any queries regarding the course or the institute? BTW, the institute has now been taken over by SEBI (legal proceedings remains). From next year onwards, SEBI will run the show.
