While speaking on the same, NTA Chief, Vineet Joshi said that "this year the agency decided to increase the application fee to keep up with the increasing cost of operations. We decide the application fee based on the estimate of the cost required to conduct the exam. Now, all of this is different every year. In this year’s exam, we have more number of participating universities, so the cost involved will be more. In different universities, they have different types of subjects and different expectations, so if you have more subjects then naturally you will incur more cost,” as reported by Indian Express.

He further added that "the fee has been increased to match up the cost of constant development of security, and ensuring that the exams are conducted in a safe manner. Maintaining and upgrading safety is a constant endeavour. Putting up additional manpower of observers, technical software and more incurs more cost”.
