BDS is a dental qualification, not MBBS. MDS selection requires the dental postgraduate examination; a generic NEET PG label on a migrated webpage is not used as its admission rule. No current intake is inferred from the college’s old history page.
Academic cohort: 2026–27. Source schedule: 18 June 2026, general-category students, this exact institute/campus. Currency: INR. The first instalment total includes the displayed refundable caution deposit. The remaining columns are aggregate remaining instalments, not another annual charge. Hostel and mess are not established by this academic table.
Do not add the caution deposit to the first total a second time. Do not multiply the first payment by course duration: the university publishes the aggregate remaining payments and cohort total separately. Course duration and number of billed instalments are not necessarily identical. NRI/foreign-currency prices and current room/mess schedules have not been substituted into this general-category table.
Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) · First instalment components · INR · 2026–27 general category · hostel/mess excluded

The accessible component table above contains the same values. Bar lengths compare only this programme’s first academic instalment; the chart is not an institution-wide annual-cost comparison.
Joining, residence and refunds
Ask for a written demand naming the qualification, admitted cohort, counselling category and billing period. Separate recurring tuition, one-time joining items, university charges, equipment, hostel and mess. A deposit is labelled refundable only where the source says so. Obtain withdrawal, scholarship and service-bond terms separately; they may affect the decision without being part of the headline tuition.
For MCODS Manipal, the verified academic component table above should be read alongside the separate room and meal quotation.
Fees at MCODS Manipal
Campus and cohort matter
The retained fee table is explicitly labelled 2026–27 general category and 18 June 2026. The BDS row shows a first payment of ₹563,000 including a ₹10,000 refundable caution deposit and a published cohort total of ₹2,222,000. These are inherited dated figures, not a new joining invoice verified on 29 October. The current BDS programme webpage also displays ₹2,222,000, but its surrounding admissions text has already moved to 2027 and is not a replacement itemised schedule.
The remaining tuition and other-fee columns in the retained table are aggregates across remaining instalments. They must not be interpreted as annual amounts and multiplied again. Hostel and meals are outside that academic table, while NRI or foreign-category billing requires a different schedule. A certificate-course price does not establish an MDS specialty price, and neither campus’s rate should replace the other’s.
