Hello,
The total fees for a 3-year LLB course varies from college to college. In government law colleges, the total fee for three years is usually lower and can be affordable. In private law colleges, the total fee is usually higher. Many colleges also divide the fee by semester, so you pay a tuition fee each semester instead of all at once.
Total 3-year costs can be Rs.60k-Rs1.8L (Govt) or Rs.2.4L-Rs.7.5L (Private), plus potential hostel/other charges. To get more details about the fees structure, Kindly check the below link.
