What to Check Before Paying for a Digital Marketing Course: Fees, GST, Refunds
Before paying for a digital marketing course, get six things in writing: the base fee, GST, what the fee includes, extra costs, EMI terms and the refund policy. Add them up, and compare the total, not the advertised price.

How much do digital marketing course fees cost in Guwahati?
Digital marketing course fees in Guwahati vary a lot, depending on duration, format and what is included. Two courses with the same headline price can end up costing very different amounts once GST and extras are added.
So compare the total you will pay and the live teaching hours you get for it. DigiAdzo’s course fee is ₹35,000 plus GST, for 80 live hours.
What your quote should include
Ask for a written quote that lists every item. A clear quote usually shows:
- The base course fee
- GST, shown as a separate line
- Admission or registration fees
- What is included: software, certificate, projects, recorded sessions
- Costs outside the fee, such as ad budget for practice campaigns or exam fees
- EMI terms, including any interest
How GST changes the price
Private training is generally charged GST at 18 percent, but confirm the current rate with the institute or the official GST portal. Your invoice should show the fee plus GST.
For example, a course priced at ₹30,000 plus 18 percent GST costs ₹35,400. That is an illustration of the sum, not any institute’s fee. If a quote does not say whether GST is included, ask before you pay.
Cost per class hour: a fairer way to compare
Divide the total fee, including GST, by the number of live teaching hours. A cheaper course with fewer hours can cost more per hour than a pricier one.
Ask for the hours in writing, and check whether they are live classes or recorded videos.
Refund policy: what to ask
Many people think about this only after something goes wrong. Ask:
- Is there a refund window, and how many days is it?
- What is deducted if you leave?
- What happens if a batch is cancelled or delayed?
- Is the policy written down and given to you before you pay?
If a dispute comes up later, the National Consumer Helpline at consumerhelpline.gov.in can guide you. Keep every receipt and message.
