       Note: Depending on your mode of payment, a nominal service charge might be levied by SBI.

- SAVE THE RECEIPT. 

       Save as a pdf file, or take a screenshot of the same. Note the SB Collect Reference Number. This number will typically be of the form: “DU” followed by an alphabet and 7 digits. For example, DUK1234567. This number, and the receipt that was saved, will be needed for the next step (Step 2) of the application found here. Please do not upload your bank's / UPI's transaction receipt. We need the receipt with the DU number as that is what we need to check with our bank.

YOUR APPLICATION PROCESS IS NOT COMPLETE TILL YOU FINISH STEP 2. 

YOUR SEAT IS NOT CONFIRMED TILL STEP 3 IS OVER FROM OUR SIDE.

Failed Payments

Sometimes, the payment does not go through, even if SBI shows you a reference number. In those cases, the following message is flashed on the receipt, typically, in deep red font:

"Transaction status is pending. If your account is debited, please verify the status of your transaction under 'Payment History' after one hour."

Click here to see the typical image of a receipt where payment has failed. Note that the two notifications shown above will also not be visible on such a receipt.

In these cases, almost without fail, the payment does not go through. Therefore, you are advised to wait for an hour and then pay the fees again through the SBI Collect portal. 

In the extremely rare case that your receipt is showing a failed transaction and yet your account has been debited, we advise you to wait for 2 business days. There is a high probability that the payment will be reversed to your account. In case it does not, please drop an email to biostats@acads.iiserpune.ac.in, attaching your "failed transaction" receipt containing the DU number AND a screenshot of your account statement showing that the payment has been debited. In that case, we are going to take up the issue with the bank.

In any case, please do not upload a receipt showing "failed transaction" through the form as we are not going to accept it.
