Fee structure — CAP vs institute level (AY2026-27)
AY2026-27 CAP OPEN totals ₹1,94,746 (Maharashtra) and ₹1,95,246 (Outside MH); institute-level Computer-group OPEN is ₹5,80,746 on the IL PDF.
PCCOE publishes separate first-year engineering fee sheets for CAP and Institute Level (IL) seats. Figures below are transcribed from the institute PDFs linked from Fee Structure and the admission pages — not from aggregators. Asterisk categories on the CAP sheet depend on government freeship / scholarship reimbursement via MAHADBT; if reimbursement fails, the student must pay the OPEN difference as the PDF states.
AY2026-27 — First Year Engineering (CAP)

AY2026-27 — Institute Level (IL) OPEN totals
| Branch group as printed | Total (Maharashtra eligibility) | Total (Other State eligibility) |
|---|---|---|
| Computer, IT, CSE (AI/ML), Computer (RI) | ₹5,80,746 | ₹5,81,246 |
| Mechanical, E&TC, Civil, Electronics (VLSI), Civil (RI) | ₹3,87,746 | ₹3,88,246 |
FRA context (tuition + development only)
The Fees Regulating Authority computation sheet for EN6175 prints approved tuition+development totals of ₹1,76,000 (AY2025-26), ₹1,60,000 (AY2024-25) and ₹1,43,000 (AY2023-24), and a proposed AY2026-27 tuition+development figure of ₹1,94,717. Those FRA lines are not the same as the CAP “total payable at admission” row, which also includes university, eligibility and insurance heads. Budget the CAP or IL PDF that matches your allotted seat.
Hostel and mess fees
AY2026-27 hostel + mess totals ₹1,65,000 (boys, new) and ₹1,55,000 (girls, new); first-year capacity on the admission page is 300 boys and 150 girls on a first-come-first-served basis.
Hostel tariffs below come from the institute fee-structure page and the institute-level fee PDF for AY2026-27. A CAP seat does not automatically mean a hostel bed — the admission home states first-year allotment is first-come, first-served within printed capacities.
| Hostel as printed | Hostel fee | Mess fee | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hostel Boys (New) | ₹1,10,000 | ₹55,000 | ₹1,65,000 |
| Hostel Girls (New) | ₹1,00,000 | ₹55,000 | ₹1,55,000 |
| Hostel (Nirman Group) Ravet | ₹90,000 | ₹55,000 | ₹1,45,000 |
| Hostel Building Ravet | ₹85,000 | ₹55,000 | ₹1,40,000 |
| Item | As printed |
|---|---|
| Boys hostel capacity (First Year) | 300 — first-come, first-served |
| Girls hostel capacity (First Year) | 150 — first-come, first-served |
| Room sharing | Maximum 3 students per room |
| Admission validity | One academic year; later years on merit basis as printed |
Keep an off-campus rent buffer until the Hostel Section confirms allotment. Contacts printed on the fee page: New Boys Hostel 020-2760 0142 | Girls Hostel 020-2760 0146.
What four years can cost — labelled estimate only
PCCOE does not publish a four-year consolidated tuition total for AY2026-27; any multi-year figure below is our arithmetic on the annual CAP OPEN head, not an institute quotation.
Read this as an estimate. The CAP and IL fee PDFs print first-year payable totals. They do not state that the same total applies for every subsequent year. FRA history shows tuition+development changing across years. We will not silently multiply and present the product as the college’s figure.
| Component | Published annual figure | Our four-year computation |
|---|---|---|
| CAP OPEN (MH) | ₹1,94,746 per year (CAP fee PDF) | ₹7,78,984 — our estimate, only if that annual total held for four years |
| Caution money | ₹25,000 after confirmation | One-time on the sheet — not multiplied |
| Hostel boys (new) + mess | ₹1,65,000 per year on AY2026-27 tables | ₹6,60,000 — only if the same tariff held four years |
| IL Computer-group OPEN | ₹5,80,746 first year | Do not multiply without a printed multi-year IL schedule |

Historical closes are not next-year guarantees. Compare on the same list with PICT Pune, DY Patil Akurdi and VIT Pune rather than mixing percentiles across years.
Placements — what the institute pages date
The PCCOE III / placement pages opened in August 2026 do not publish a batch-dated median or average we can use for EMI maths — this page will not invent one.
We opened the institute’s Industry Institute Interaction / placements surfaces. Marketing copy describes recruiter engagement; it does not replace a dated branch-wise placement PDF with median and average for a named batch.
| Claim type | Period named on the published pages? | How this page treats it |
|---|---|---|
| Branch-wise median / average package | Not found as a dated table on the capture | Not invented — ask T&P / III for a written dated summary |
| Highest package | Not used here without a named batch year | Not used as a typical outcome |
| Placed vs eligible counts | Not verified as a complete official table here | Request from the Training & Placement office after shortlisting |
For EMI planning, insist on a dated branch-wise median from T&P — the same honesty standard used on Walchand Sangli and DY Patil Akurdi when summary pages are incomplete.
Seats and intake (CET Cell / institute 2026)
Regular first-year intake across nine programme rows totals 1,050 seats; TFWS T/LT rows are extra and excluded from that sum.
Seat counts below match the State CET Cell institute summary for code 06175 and the intake table on the PCCOE admission home (choice codes printed without the leading zero on some institute tables — use the live CET Cell form).
| Choice code | Course | Intake |
|---|---|---|
| 0617524510 | Computer Engineering | 240 |
| 0617537210 | Electronics and Telecommunication Engg | 180 |
| 0617561210 | Mechanical Engineering | 180 |
| 0617524610 | Information Technology | 120 |
| 0617591110 | CSE (Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning) | 120 |
| 0617519110 | Civil Engineering | 60 |
| 0617537810 | Electronics Engineering (VLSI Design and Technology) | 60 |
| 0617524590L | Computer Engineering (Regional Language) | 60 |
| 0617519190L | Civil Engineering (Regional Language) | 30 |
| Regular total (non-T / non-LT) | 1,050 | |
Always lock the full choice code from the live option form. Computer Engineering (0617524510) and Computer Engineering Regional Language (0617524590L) are different seats and different cutoffs.
Admission process — documents and reporting
Register on the CET Cell portal, fill preferences with the correct 06175 choice codes, accept the allotment on schedule, then report to PCCOE and pay via the ERP portal named on the fee PDF.
PCCOE first-year engineering seats for Maharashtra and All-India CAP move through the State CET Cell process. Institute-level seats, if allotted under institute vacancy / IL rules, use the IL fee sheet. The sequence below is the counselling path that actually decides the seat.
- Entrance and registration. Appear for MHT-CET and/or JEE Main as required for the seat type you want, then complete CET Cell registration and document upload for the engineering cycle.
- Option form. Add PCCOE programmes using full choice codes from institute 06175. Separate Regional Language L-suffix rows if those are acceptable.
- CAP rounds. Read each allotment against freeze / float / slide rules in the CET Cell Information Brochure before you accept.
- Fee payment. Pay the category total from the CAP or IL PDF through learner.pceterp.in as the fee sheets require. Keep funds for the ₹25,000 caution money deposit after confirmation.
- Institute reporting. Carry the allotment letter and the document set named in the CET Cell brochure, plus any PCCOE reporting checklist for the year.
- Hostel (optional, separate). Apply early — first-year capacity is limited and allotted first-come, first-served on the admission home.
Documents checklist
| Document | Why it matters at PCCOE |
|---|---|
| CAP allotment letter / seat acceptance proof | Proves the allotted choice code (including L-suffix rows) |
| MHT-CET / JEE Main scorecard as applicable | Matches the merit list that allotted the seat |
| 10th and 12th mark sheets and passing certificates | Eligibility and name / DOB consistency |
| School / college leaving and migration as required | Institute reporting completeness |
| Domicile / nationality proofs as required | Maharashtra vs All-India / OMS candidature types |
| Caste / EWS / TFWS / income certificates if claimed | Category fee row and CAP category must match; MAHADBT timelines apply |
| Aadhaar and passport photographs | ERP and institute file |
| Medical fitness if the brochure requires it | Reporting rejection risk if missing |
If a claimed concession is not reimbursed, the CAP fee PDF states the student must pay the OPEN difference — keep funds ready until Social Welfare / MAHADBT status is confirmed in writing.
CAP rounds, freeze, float and forfeiture
Freeze, float and slide rules are set by the State CET Cell Information Brochure for the cycle — they apply to institute 06175 the same way they apply to other Maharashtra CAP colleges.
Most avoidable seat losses happen after the merit is already good enough. The freeze / float / forfeiture rules are published by the Maharashtra State CET Cell for the admission cycle, not by PCCOE. They apply to institute 06175 the same way they apply to PICT, DY Patil Akurdi or VIT Pune.
| Decision | What to verify | Document that settles it |
|---|---|---|
| Freeze vs float vs slide | Whether you can still move up after accepting a seat | CET Cell Information Brochure for the current engineering cycle |
| Seat acceptance fee / reporting | Deadline and mode of payment after allotment | Allotment letter + CET Cell schedule |
| L-suffix Regional Language codes | Whether your preference list used the L code you intended | Option form + institute summary for 06175 |
| Document scrutiny | Caste / EWS / TFWS / income proofs matching the allotted category | CET Cell candidate document list + institute reporting checklist |
| Forfeiture | What happens if you do not report or cancel late | CET Cell brochure forfeiture clauses |
Build the preference list assuming you may be allotted any code you ranked — including an IL-fee seat if you later take institute-level admission — then freeze only when that fee package is acceptable.
Common mistakes that cost applicants a seat or deposit
The usual failure modes at PCCOE are budgeting CAP fees for an IL seat, missing hostel capacity windows, and treating undated placement marketing as a loan-ready median.
| Mistake | Why it hurts | Document that settles it |
|---|---|---|
| Budgeting ₹1,94,746 while taking an IL Computer seat | IL Computer-group OPEN is ₹5,80,746 on the IL PDF | CAP vs IL fee PDFs AY2026-27 |
| Ignoring the ₹25,000 caution money note | Payable after confirmation, separate from the CAP total row | CAP fee PDF note 1 |
| Assuming hostel is automatic with CAP | FY capacity 300/150 and first-come-first-served | Admission home hostel information |
| Mixing All-India JEE closes with MHT-CET percentiles | Different merit lists and scales | CET Cell MH vs AI cut-off PDFs |
| Using invented medians for EMI sizing | III pages we opened lack a batch-dated median table | Ask T&P for a dated branch-wise summary |
| Missing MAHADBT timelines on asterisk categories | CAP PDF puts reimbursement risk on the student | CAP fee PDF scholarship notes |
How PCCOE compares with PICT and DY Patil Akurdi
On the same CAP Round I lists, PCCOE Computer Engineering (merit 4129 in 2026) sits in a different band from PICT’s tighter CE closes — fees, IL premiums and hostel rules differ more than the Pimpri–Akurdi geography suggests.
Candidates who miss PICT Pune often shortlist PCCOE next to DY Patil Akurdi and VIT Pune. Compare on axes, not vibes — Nigdi and Akurdi are neighbouring PCET/DY corridors, but choice codes and fee sheets are not interchangeable.
| Axis | PCCOE Pune | PICT / DY Patil Akurdi |
|---|---|---|
| CAP Round I 2026 CE tightness | Computer Engineering GOPENS merit 4129 (99.0471821) | PICT CE closes are tighter on the same CET Cell list — read the PICT page; DY Patil Akurdi has its own 06272 codes |
| OPEN annual fee (AY2026-27 CAP) | ₹1,94,746 MH OPEN on CAP PDF | Different circulars — see each college page |
| Institute-level premium | Computer-group IL OPEN ₹5,80,746 | Peer IL / institutional rules differ — never copy PCCOE IL maths onto another brand |
| Hostel evidence | Dated AY2026-27 tariffs + FY capacity 300/150 | Check each page’s hostel circular or table |
| Placement evidence quality | No batch-dated median on the published pages | Check each page’s dated report standard |
Also weigh COEP Pune if your merit is in the government-university band, and Walchand Sangli if aided/unaided autonomous maths outside Pune is acceptable.

How many seats does PCCOE Pune have?
Regular first-year intake across nine programme rows totals 1,050 seats on the CET Cell / institute intake tables used here (TFWS T/LT rows excluded from that sum). Confirm the live matrix before locking choices.
What is the PCCOE hostel fee for 2026-27?
AY2026-27 tables print boys (new) ₹1,10,000 + mess ₹55,000 = ₹1,65,000 and girls (new) ₹1,00,000 + mess ₹55,000 = ₹1,55,000. Ravet options are lower on the IL fee PDF. First-year capacity on the admission home is 300 boys and 150 girls, first-come-first-served.
What is the average package at PCCOE Pune?
The III / placement pages we opened in August 2026 do not publish a batch-dated average or median we can cite for loan maths. Request a dated branch-wise summary from Training & Placement before sizing an EMI.
Are CAP and institute-level fees the same at PCCOE?
No. CAP and IL seats use different fee PDFs. For AY2026-27, CAP OPEN is ₹1,94,746 (MH) while IL Computer-group OPEN is ₹5,80,746.
Extended admission FAQs
How should I read multi-year cutoffs for PCCOE?
Use merit number first, then the printed percentile, and keep Regional Language L-codes separate. All Maharashtra rows on this page are CAP Round I GOPENS Stage-I. All-India rows use JEE Main scores. Do not mix the two scales.
What exams does PCCOE accept for B.Tech?
Maharashtra CAP seats use MHT-CET merit through the State CET Cell. All-India CAP seats use JEE Main merit on the All-India cut-off list. CAP and institute-level routes are admission paths, not entrance exams.
Does TFWS mean zero fees at PCCOE?
No. On the AY2026-27 CAP fee PDF, TFWS totals ₹26,913 payable at admission. TFWS still requires CET Cell eligibility and documentation, and scholarship notes on the PDF still apply.
Can a consultant guarantee a PCCOE seat?
No. CAP allotment is done by the State CET Cell on merit and preferences. A counsellor can help with documents and preference order; nobody can override merit or invent a seat. Use profile evaluation, not “assured admission” language.
How does PCCOE compare with PICT for Computer Engineering?
On the same CET Cell CAP Round I family of lists, PICT Computer Engineering closes are typically tighter than PCCOE’s 2026 CE GOPENS merit 4129. Fees, IL rules and placement reporting differ — compare the verified pages rather than collapsing both into one prestige rank.
How does PCCOE compare with DY Patil Akurdi?
Both sit in the Pimpri–Akurdi corridor, but they are different institutes with different CAP codes (06175 vs 06272) and different fee PDFs. Read each page’s cutoff and fee tables before treating them as substitutes.
Where is PCCOE located?
Sector No. 26, Pradhikaran, Nigdi, Pune 411044, Maharashtra. Official website: https://www.pccoepune.com/. Confirm reporting instructions on the allotment letter before travel.
Is the four-year fee total ₹7,78,984 official?
No. ₹7,78,984 is our computed estimate of ₹1,94,746 × 4 using the AY2026-27 CAP OPEN annual total. The institute does not publish that four-year consolidated quotation. Use the written annual demand each year.
