1. The candidates are required to check the status of fee payment on
the website (http://www.ipuadmissions.nic.in) and must take the
printout of online fee confirmation receipt with the transaction
details, to be retained for all future reference. In case of payment
of fee through Challan, the candidate must retain the copy of the
Challan after depositing the fees.
2. Candidates are advised in their own interest to complete the
process of fee submission online much before the closing date and
not to wait till the last minute to avoid transaction failure or any
other technical fault due to congestion on web server on account
of heavy load on internet/website.
3. If the fee is paid through credit/debit card and status is not ‘OK’,
it means the transaction got cancelled and the amount will be
refunded to concerned credit/debit card. Such candidates have to
pay the fee once again.
