I had applied for NIFT counselling by paying 1.6 lakhs on September 1st 2020. The Counselling happened on 19th of September and it was told that the money would be refunded within 10 days and despite repeated mails and complaints there's no proper response. 

This is an irresponsible behaviour from an institute run by Indian government and has put a lot of candidates in trouble for proceeding with other institutes
