Govindrao Nikam College of Pharmacy B.Pharm Fees 2026

B.Pharm at Govindrao Nikam College of Pharmacy is a four-year programme affiliated to Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Technological University (DBATU), Lonere, and approved by the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI). The college is located in Sawarde village, Ratnagiri district, on the Konkan coast of Maharashtra — a quieter setting compared to city-based pharmacy colleges, with on-campus facilities including hostel accommodation serving the outstation student base. Admission is through MHT-CET (Maharashtra Health and Technical Common Entrance Test). MHT-CET 2026 (PCB stream) was held from April 21 to 26, 2026, with results released on June 16, 2026 (tentative). Eligibility requires 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, and Biology at a minimum 45% aggregate (40% for reserved categories).

The total fee for B.Pharm at Govindrao Nikam College of Pharmacy is INR 6,35,838 for the full four-year course, as approved under Maharashtra state fee regulation. Maharashtra pharmacy college fees are set by the State Fee Regulating Authority (SFRA), and private unaided institutes like Govindrao Nikam College of Pharmacy operate under approved fee slabs that reflect the full cost of running the programme without government grant support. The per-year fee works out to approximately INR 1,58,960 annually over four years.

B.Pharm graduates are eligible to register as pharmacists with the Maharashtra State Pharmacy Council and can pursue careers in pharmaceutical manufacturing, quality assurance, hospital pharmacy, and regulatory affairs. Ratnagiri district, while primarily known for agriculture, has graduates entering the broader Maharashtra and Konkan pharma and healthcare employment market. Graduates from this college can also progress to M.Pharm at the same campus.

B.Pharm Lateral Entry, available for D.Pharma holders and eligible candidates, costs INR 1,93,892 for three years of direct entry to year two of B.Pharm. The lateral entry fee slab approved for this college results in a per-year figure lower than the regular B.Pharm stream. Admission to lateral entry seats is through the Maharashtra CET Cell’s Direct Second Year Pharmacy (DSP) process.

Govindrao Nikam College of Pharmacy M.Pharm Fees 2026

Both M.Pharm specializations at Govindrao Nikam College of Pharmacy — Biopharmaceutics and Pharmaceutics — are priced identically at INR 2,73,000 for two years.

Eligibility requires a B.Pharm degree from a PCI-recognized institution. Maharashtra also conducts the MAH-MPharm CET for state-level M.Pharm counselling; confirm the applicable admission route with the admissions office at the time of applying.

Biopharmaceutics focuses on how drug properties interact with biological systems — covering pharmacokinetics, drug absorption, and bioavailability studies. This specialization is particularly relevant for candidates targeting careers in clinical pharmacokinetics, formulation development, and regulatory submissions involving bioequivalence data. Pharmaceutics, the broader M.Pharm discipline, covers drug formulation science, pharmaceutical technology, and dosage form development across tablets, injectables, and novel delivery systems. At identical cost, the choice between the two is purely career-driven.

Govindrao Nikam College of Pharmacy Hostel and Mess Fees 2026
