Why NEBOSH fees are confusing
NEBOSH IGC fees in India are confusing because there are two separate costs, charged by two different parties, in two different currencies. The NEBOSH examination fee is set by NEBOSH in British pounds and charged through your approved centre. The course delivery fee is set by your training provider in rupees. You pay both — but they go to different places.
Many candidates see advertised prices like “NEBOSH IGC for Rs 28,000” and assume that is the total cost. It is not — that figure is usually the centre delivery fee alone. The NEBOSH exam fees on top take the total to Rs 45,000–75,000 depending on your provider and city.
NEBOSH examination fees — what you pay NEBOSH
NEBOSH sets examination fees in GBP and reviews them periodically. At mid-2026 exchange rates (approximately Rs 106 per GBP):
| Unit | GBP fee (approx) | INR equivalent (approx) |
|---|---|---|
| IG1 — Open Book Exam | £250–280 | Rs 26,500–29,700 |
| IG2 — Practical Assessment | £95–110 | Rs 10,100–11,700 |
| Total exam fees | £345–390 | Rs 36,600–41,400 |
These examination fees go directly to NEBOSH through your approved centre. The centre collects them, passes them to NEBOSH, and issues your exam booking. Exchange rate fluctuations affect the rupee cost — if the rupee weakens against GBP, fees increase. The GBP fee is fixed; the rupee equivalent varies.
Centre delivery fees — what you pay your provider
Centre delivery fee is what your training provider charges for teaching the course — tuition, study materials, tutor access, and exam administration support. This varies widely:
| Format | Typical delivery fee |
|---|---|
| Online-only (self-study, minimal tutor) | Rs 8,000–12,000 |
| Online with tutor access and live sessions | Rs 15,000–22,000 |
| Classroom in Tier 2/3 city | Rs 18,000–25,000 |
| Classroom in metro (Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad) | Rs 25,000–35,000 |
If you are in Patna or elsewhere in Bihar, classroom NEBOSH is not available locally — there is no NEBOSH approved centre in Bihar. You are looking at an online provider, which puts your delivery fee in the Rs 8,000–22,000 range depending on the provider you choose.
Total realistic cost
Online provider from Bihar: Rs 8,000–22,000 (delivery) + Rs 36,600–41,400 (exam fees) = Rs 45,000–63,000 total.
Classroom in a metro city (plus travel and accommodation): Rs 25,000–35,000 (delivery) + Rs 36,600–41,400 (exam) + Rs 5,000–15,000 (travel and accommodation) = Rs 67,000–91,000 total.
The practical total cost for a Bihar candidate doing NEBOSH IGC online: Rs 45,000–65,000.
Resit fees
If you fail IG1, the resit exam fee is approximately £130 (around Rs 13,800 at 2026 rates). If you fail IG2, the resit fee is similar. Units are resat independently — you only pay for the unit you did not pass. Your centre may charge a small additional administration fee for resit booking.
Resit rates for NEBOSH IGC vary — NEBOSH publishes pass rate statistics by region and centre. Candidates who study with an adequate tutor-access provider and practice open book exam technique consistently have higher first-attempt pass rates.
Cheaper alternatives available in Patna
If the NEBOSH IGC total cost of Rs 45,000–65,000 is a barrier, or if you need a classroom-delivered qualification in Patna, these are the alternatives PSIC offers:
| Qualification | PSIC fee | Duration | Recognition |
|---|---|---|---|
| IOSH Managing Safely | Rs 18,000–22,000 | 4 days | Gulf, Indian private sector, PSU contractors |

| OTHM Level 6 Diploma | Rs 55,000–65,000 | 6–9 months | International — comparable depth to NEBOSH Diploma |
IOSH Managing Safely at Rs 18,000–22,000 is the most practical alternative for most Bihar candidates — comparable Gulf recognition for construction and facilities roles, available locally in Patna through PSIC (the only IOSH ATP in the state), and completed in 4 days.
