Men's Hostel, VIT Vellore campus: the combined room-and-mess fee for first-year Indian-category students in the regular blocks MHN and MHP, for the six-sharing and four-sharing room types. Three- and two-sharing regular rooms and the all-air-conditioned deluxe block MHQ are priced higher, and NRI/foreign-category students are billed on a separate US-dollar scale (both in the notes).

Every line is a single combined 'Room & Mess fee', so a full meal plan is already inside the figure: vegetarian, non-vegetarian or 'special' mess is what separates the three prices for any one room type. The same sheet states the hostel fee is inclusive of laundry charges, to a maximum of 44 washes. Two charges sit on top of every line and are what produce its 'Total' column: a non-refundable admission fee of INR 15,000 and a refundable caution deposit of INR 15,000. Mess type can be changed monthly, at the full differential in the fall semester or half of it in the winter; there is no refund for a mess or room downgrade, and the sheet says the fee is subject to annual escalation. Beyond the rooms quoted here the same sheet prices three- and two-sharing regular rooms at INR 133,400-200,400 and the deluxe block MHQ, which is air-conditioned throughout and runs from eight-sharing down to two-sharing, at INR 157,800-234,800; NRI and foreign-category students are billed in US dollars instead, $1,520-2,590 in the regular blocks and $2,050-3,090 in MHQ. VIT's own hostels page (vit.ac.in/campuslife/hostels) adds that rooms come furnished with a cot, chair, study table, study lamp, bookshelf and cupboard, and that the blocks carry Wi-Fi, mechanised laundry, an air-conditioned gymnasium, a swimming pool, indoor and outdoor sports facilities, study dormitories, a pharmacy, food outlets, round-the-clock security and 24-hour water and power backed by standby generators.
