Locker Fee vs Seat Rent in Indian Study Halls — Keep Them Separate

19 September 20267 min readby TutorPe Team

Reading rooms bill two kinds of money: monthly (or pack) seat rent, and extras — locker, deposit, ID card. If both sit in one Excel column, overdue lies.

Rule

If mixing it with the seat cycle would make “pending” wrong, it is a one-time extra. Same idea as costume vs dance batch fee.

Charge How to track in TutorPe
Morning / night seat rentMember monthly or pack fee + due date
AC / premium vs normalDifferent fee amount on that member
Locker / deposit / ID cardOne-time fee presets on Study hall type

Pick Study hall / library so presets say Locker — not “admission fee”. Coaching owners never see those labels unless they switch type.

Reminders still chase seat rent. Locker has its own receipt. Walkthrough: /for/library · WhatsApp reminders · how the model works.

FAQ

Will a locker UPI clear the seat overdue chip?

No. That is the point — so “maine locker de diya” cannot hide an unpaid month.

Do you track which locker number is free?

No inventory. You already allot lockers by hand. Software tracks the fee. Free signup: tutorpe.in/register.
