Crunch the Numbers
The program costs ₹14 lakh total, while the average starting CTC is ₹3 LPA. Physiotherapy is a long-game career—this works best if you’re genuinely passionate about rehab and plan to leverage the Chettinad hospital network.
The verdict
Worth considering
Strong clinical curriculum, built-in internship, and a 72% placement rate with access to the Chettinad and Apollo network. However, the ₹14 lakh fee against a ₹3 LPA average starting salary makes the initial ROI steep, and there are no institutional scholarships. Best suited if you’re committed to a long-term clinical or private practice path in physiotherapy.
