SREC Nandyal B.Tech Fees 2026-27

At INR 1,85,200 for four years under General Quota, every B.Tech branch at SREC Nandyal carries the same total fee. Branch selection has no cost implication: choosing CSE over Mechanical Engineering, or Data Sciences over EEE, costs exactly the same. These fees are regulated by the Andhra Pradesh Admission and Fee Regulatory Committee (AFRC), which sets maximum fees for private engineering colleges in the state. Admission to B.Tech is through AP EAPCET 2026, with the engineering exam held from May 12 to 15 and May 18, 2026, and results declared on July 1, 2026.

The B.Tech fee of INR 1,85,200 over four years averages INR 46,300 per year, which places SREC Nandyal among the more affordable private engineering colleges in Andhra Pradesh. The AFRC fee regulation ensures that the college cannot charge above the approved ceiling, providing cost predictability for students over all four years. The college offers both traditional engineering streams (EEE, ECE, Mechanical Engineering) and newer technology-focused branches (CSE AI and ML, Data Sciences, Computer Science and Design). All seven branches are offered under the same regulated fee, removing any cost-based hierarchy between streams.

SREC Nandyal M.Tech Fees 2026-27

At INR 88,000 for two years, the M.Tech fee averages INR 44,000 per year, only marginally lower than the B.Tech per-year rate of INR 46,300.
