Investment and cost
An initial investment of approximately Rs 8 to 10 crore on partner-provided land of about 2 acres, with land, working capital and taxes accounted for separately.
In short
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Initial investment | Approximately Rs 8 to 10 crore |
| Is land included? | No. Land of about 2 acres is provided by the partner and is a separate asset |
| Is working capital included? | No. Plan separately for the first two to three academic years |
| Taxes | GST and statutory levies are payable by the partner and are excluded |
| Brand fee and royalty | One-time brand fee plus an ongoing royalty on revenue, confirmed in writing during evaluation |
| Expected student capacity | A 2 acre K-12 campus typically supports well over a thousand students at maturity |
| What changes the estimate | City tier, plot shape and levels, phasing, campus size, local construction rates and CBSE norms |
| Information reviewed | August 2026 |
Last reviewed: August 2026. Figures are indicative and a location-specific estimate is issued after site assessment.
The same campus specification produces a different project cost in a metro, a Tier 2 city and a Tier 3 town.
Land cost dominates the project and is often the single largest number, though it is not part of the Rs 8 to 10 crore. Construction and salary costs are higher, fee realisation is also higher, and competition for admissions is strongest.
The most common Jaipuria profile. Construction and staffing are moderate, land is usually already owned by the partner, and demand for a credentialed CBSE brand is strong and under-served.
Lowest build cost and lowest competition, but fee levels are lower and the enrolment ramp is usually slower. Catchment assessment matters most here, and phasing the build is often the sensible route.
Salaries, utilities and marketing run at close to full cost from day one while enrolment is still building. This is the most common source of strain in year one and two.
Levelling, boundary walls, approach roads, drainage and power connections are site specific and can be significant on agricultural or uneven plots.
Interest during construction is a real project cost and is not part of the Rs 8 to 10 crore.
Land-use conversion, building plan approvals, fire and safety compliance and CBSE fees are paid directly by the partner.
