Indira Gandhi Medical College and Research Institute (IGMC RI), Puducherry, has released the fee structure for MD and MS courses for academic year 2026-27, setting total college fee at Rs 1.85 lakh including a refundable Rs 25,000 caution deposit. The college fee of Rs 1.60 lakh covers admission, academic, learning resource and establishment charges.
For hostel accommodation, students must pay a refundable Rs 10,000 caution deposit and monthly single-room rent of Rs 4,000, which the institute will deduct from the postgraduate stipend. The institute, under the Perunthalaivar Kamaraj Medical College Society, Government of Puducherry, participates in CENTAC counselling through which all seats are filled. Medical Dialogues and MedAdmit both report the same figures.
Medical Dialogues reports the base fee figures in a plain, official register, leading with the ₹1.85 lakh total and the refundable Rs 25,000 deposit. MedAdmit’s version mirrors those figures but frames the story around NEET-PG aspirants’ financial planning, adding the stipend deduction detail and a comparison with private college fees. Both outlets are essentially neutral-report on this routine administrative announcement. The only real difference is audience: Medical Dialogues treats it as a straightforward regulatory update, while MedAdmit presents it as a buyer’s guide. Neither source offers differing facts or contradictory figures, so the coverage is uniform. The next step for candidates is CENTAC counselling, through which all seats at IGMC RI will be filled.
