DRT & DRAT Court Fees Calculator
DRT Original Application (OA) – Section 19, RDB Act, 1993
Fee is calculated under Rule 7 of the Debts Recovery Tribunal (Procedure) Rules, 1993, based on the amount of debt due.
- Debt due up to ₹10,00,000: flat ₹12,000
- Debt due above ₹10,00,000: ₹12,000 + ₹1,000 for every additional ₹1 lakh (or part thereof), subject to a maximum of ₹1,50,000
DRT SARFAESI Application (SA) – Section 17, SARFAESI Act, 2002
Fee is calculated under Rule 13 of the Security Interest (Enforcement) Rules, 2002, and differs depending on whether the applicant is the borrower or another aggrieved party.
- Borrower, debt below ₹10,00,000: ₹500 for every ₹1 lakh (or part thereof)
- Borrower, debt ₹10,00,000 & above: ₹5,000 + ₹250 for every additional ₹1 lakh (or part thereof), max ₹1,00,000
- Other aggrieved party, debt below ₹10,00,000: ₹125 for every ₹1 lakh (or part thereof)
- Other aggrieved party, debt ₹10,00,000 & above: ₹1,250 + ₹125 for every additional ₹1 lakh (or part thereof), max ₹50,000
DRAT Appeal – Section 20, RDB Act, 1993
Fee is calculated under Rule 8 of the Debts Recovery Appellate Tribunal (Procedure) Rules, 1994, based on the amount appealed against (i.e. the DRT order under challenge).
- Amount appealed against less than ₹10,00,000: ₹12,000
- ₹10,00,000 or more but less than ₹30,00,000: ₹20,000
- ₹30,00,000 or more: ₹30,000
Note: If your DRAT appeal is against a DRT order passed on a SARFAESI Section 17 application (rather than an Original Application), the appeal fee instead follows the SARFAESI applicant-type slabs shown in the "DRT SARFAESI Application" tab (Rule 13(2), item 2). Also remember that a Section 18 SARFAESI appeal to DRAT generally requires a pre-deposit of 50% (reducible to 25% by the DRAT) of the debt determined – this deposit is separate from, and far larger than, the filing fee shown here.
Disclaimer: This calculator provides an estimate based on the published statutory fee schedules referred to above. Fee notifications are amended from time to time – always verify the current fee with the Registrar of the concerned Tribunal before filing, and consult an advocate for case-specific advice. This tool does not calculate the pre-deposit required under Section 18 of the SARFAESI Act or Section 21 of the RDB Act.
