The passport cost in Indian varies depending on the passport type and number of pages. The normal passport of 36 pages costs Rs 1500, and a 60-page passport costs Rs 2000. However, if you opt for a Tatkaal passport, then you need to pay an additional fee. Here, the price also depends on the number of pages. The cost of a 36-page passport is Rs 3500, and a 60-page passport is Rs 4000.

    While applying online for an Indian passport, you need to pay Rs 1500 for a 36-page booklet. However, if you applied offline at the passport office, the officials might ask you whether you need a passport cover or SMS service. In case you choose it, then you might have to pay an extra fee along with the passport fee.

    The fee for applying for a fresh Indian passport or reissue of a passport for a 36-page booklet is Rs 1,500, and for a 60-page booklet is Rs 2,000, with a standard processing time. For a Tatkal passport, you need to pay an additional fee for both the fresh and reissue of the passport, with a 36-page booklet it is Rs 3500, and for a 60-page booklet it is Rs 4000. Here, I have described the normal fees for anyone who applies for an Indian passport. However, in exceptional cases, the fee may vary, so it is advisable to check the fee on the passport portal.

    As per my understanding, the Indian passport cost varies depending on the processing method, number of pages, and passport type. So, if you apply for a normal passport using the standard processing time with a 36-page booklet, it costs Rs 1500, and a 60-page booklet costs Rs 2000. Additionally, if you apply for Tatkaal passport services, the application fee for a 36-page booklet is Rs 3500, and a 60-page booklet is Rs 4000.
