Kendriya Vidyalaya (KV) school fees range from ₹500 to roughly ₹1,050 per month, depending on the student's class, stream, and gender. The structure has four core components — Admission Fee, Vidyalaya Vikas Nidhi (VVN), Computer Fund, and Tuition Fee — plus a separate CBSE exam fee charged in Classes 10 and 12.

This fee structure is confirmed across multiple official KVS sources, including the KVS Bengaluru Regional Office and individual KV school pages. Last verified: 03 AUGUST 2026

How this breaks down:

  • No tuition fee for any student in Classes 1–8, and no tuition fee for girl students at any class, from Class 1 through 12.

  • VVN (₹500/month) is the one fee every student pays, regardless of class or gender.

  • Computer Fund starts at Class 3; the separate, higher Computer Science elective fee applies only to Class 11–12 students who choose it as a subject.

KV Exam Fees (Class 10 & 12 Board Exams)

KV school fees (above) are separate from the CBSE board exam registration fee, which is charged when students register for Class 10 and Class 12 board exams. Based on an official notice from a KV school for a recent CBSE registration cycle:

Class

Category

Exam Fee (₹)

Class 10

General / OBC

1,800

Class 10

SC / ST

300

Class 12

All students

2,400

Important caveat: CBSE sets and revises exam fees, not KVS — the amount can change each academic year and may vary slightly by school or late-registration status. Treat the figures above as a recent reference point, not a guarantee for the current cycle. Confirm the exact amount from your KV's CBSE registration notice before publishing or paying.

Category-Wise Fee Exemptions

KVS provides fee exemptions for several student categories. What's consistently confirmed across official and semi-official sources:

  • Girl students: Fully exempt from tuition fees, Class 1–12 (applies nationwide, no conditions).

  • SC/ST students: Exempt from tuition fees.

  • Children of KVS employees: Exempt from tuition fees.

  • Students with disabilities: Exempt from tuition fees and VVN (per KVS instructions dated 15.10.2009).

  • Economically weaker sections / BPL card holders: Fee concessions available.

  • Children of Armed Forces/paramilitary personnel: Concessions available — reported scope varies by source (some describe full waivers for children of personnel killed or disabled in action, others describe a 50% concession for children of serving personnel generally). This distinction needs to be confirmed from the official KVS exemption circular before you publish specific percentages — don't guess at which applies to whom.

A separate KVS exemptions document (linked on official fee-structure pages) governs the precise scope of each category. Pull the actual document before adding specifics beyond what's above.

How KV Fees Are Paid

  • KVS fees are collected quarterly, not month-to-month, and are paid online — schools do not accept cash at the counter.

  • Payment is processed through the Union Bank of India (UBI) portal, linked from the official KVS website.

  • [Confirm the current step-by-step payment process, ID requirements, and deadline windows directly from kvsangathan.nic.in or your specific KV's site before publishing — this varies by portal update cycle and shouldn't be stated from memory.]

FAQs

Q: What is the KV school fee for 2026?

A: It ranges from ₹500/month (VVN only, no tuition — applies to most students in Classes 1–8 and all girls) up to about ₹1,050/month for boys in Class 11–12 Science with the Computer Science elective.

Q: What is the KV exam fee for Class 10?

A: Based on a recent CBSE registration cycle, ₹1,800 for General/OBC candidates and ₹300 for SC/ST candidates. Confirm the current-year figure with your school, as CBSE revises this periodically.

Q: Do girls pay any KV school fees?

A: Girls pay VVN (₹500/month) and Computer Fund where applicable, but are exempt from tuition fees at every class level.

Q: Is VVN the same as tuition fee?
