Schools in India today have a fee structure that may surprise many Non Resident Indians who left India several years ago. Some schools have a different fee structure for the schooling of children whose parents reside abroad.

School fees for children of Nri's is significantly higher than other children in the same school. One of the questions that is asked by most foreign based Indian residents is about extra school fees they may have to pay to send their children to school in India.

OCI holders who want to settle in India is one category of Indian residents that try to find an answer to their questions on school fees in India. Some parents even think of applying for Indian citizenship for their children so that they can avoid paying extra fees charged from foreign citizens.

While there is no clear answer to many such queries, I will make an attempt to point out a few things and leave it up to the readers to choose how they wish to approach this topic
