Summary The High Court of Calcutta allowed three appeals by engineering students challenging a mid-session fee hike notification dated October 16, 2023. The court held that while the fee enhancement itself complied with regulations, it could not apply retroactively to students who had already completed their admission process before the notification date. The court ordered the revised fee structure to apply only prospectively to students admitted on or after October 16, 2023, and directed refund or adjustment of additional fees already collected from previously-admitted students. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
