i am Ap student attempted pgcet kea for mtech, received rank of 1093 in Gm i want to know the fee payment category for GM, kea fee + college fee , but college depends on their college, what if it comes around lakhs where management seat would be better??

Hello Student,

With a KEA PGCET M.Tech GM rank of 1093, you have a reasonably competitive rank, but you can't determine the total amount you may need to pay from rank alone.

The final cost depends on:

• The college and M.Tech specialisation allotted to you
• Your KEA fee category
• The specific KEA counselling/admission fee for 2026
• Any additional college/university fees

Before considering a management seat, first compare the total 2-year cost of the college allotted through KEA with the management quota fee for the same college and branch. A management seat is not automatically cheaper or better; in many cases, KEA admission can be significantly more economical.

If you share the colleges and M.Tech specialisations you are targeting, I can help you compare whether KEA counselling or management admission would be the better financial choice. Best Wishes!
