Are PTE exam fees higher in peak months?
No, the PTE exam fees remain consistent throughout the year and do not fluctuate based on demand or peak periods. Whether you book in a high-demand month like January (commonly chosen for university deadlines) or during less busy times, the fee will still be ₹18,000 INR in India.
However, availability can become a challenge during peak months, and test centers may get fully booked weeks in advance. This could result in candidates choosing less convenient dates or traveling to distant cities to find open slots. While the fee itself remains fixed, the indirect cost in terms of travel or urgency can increase. Therefore, even though PTE exam fees are stable, early booking during peak periods is advisable to avoid logistical complications.
