Seven Noida Private Schools Fined for Exceeding Permissible Fee Hikes
The Gautam Buddh Nagar administration fined seven private schools Rs 1 lakh each for violating Uttar Pradesh's fee regulation law for the 2026-27 academic session. Six schools in Noida and Greater Noida exceeded the permitted 7.23% fee hike, while one school failed to upload its fee structure. The District Fee Regulatory Committee, chaired by the District Magistrate, reviewed the fee hikes following parental complaints and issued penalties. Schools have been warned of legal action if they fail to pay the fines.
