Chandigarh: Private schools to declare income; can't raise fees arbitrarily

Private schools in Chandigarh will now have to declare their income and expenditure every year and won't be able to raise fee arbitrarily.

The Gazette was signed by the Additional Secretary PK Srivastava in the Home Ministry. Being a Union Territory, Chandigarh comes under the direct administrative control of the Home Ministry.

Information

Increase in fee
Can increase fees if funds are required to run institution

A private school/institute shall be competent to fix its fee and it may also increase the same after taking into account the need to generate funds to run institution and to provide facilities necessary for student's benefit. However, increase in fee won't exceed 8% of the fee of previous-year, it cannot indulge in profiteering and it cannot charge capitation fee, the notification said.

Information
A regulatory body will monitor the activities of institutions
