Registration for Maharashtra’s common entrance tests may soon become costlier, with the State CET Cell proposing a revision of examination fees across all major higher-education admissions. The proposal, now with the higher and technical education department for approval, seeks to increase the registration charges by Rs 150 to Rs 250, depending on the exam. At present, candidates pay between Rs 500 and Rs 1,000, depending on whether the test is conducted on paper or as a computer-based exam.

The Maharashtra Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell oversees 19 entrance examinations covering 72 undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, including engineering, pharmacy, nursing, hotel management, and teacher education. Pen-and-paper exams currently carry fees in the Rs 500 – Rs 600 range, while computer-based tests are priced between Rs 800 and Rs 1,000.
