Medical Test Costs in Bengaluru (Bangalore) India - Elbit & Fortis

[canadaVisa10]

If it helps anyone looking for the cost of the tests as of December 2017 in Bengaluru, India:

Elbit: Rs. 3750 (Interestingly, on the phone they said it'd be Rs.5500... but at the venue was only charged Rs.1300 + Rs.2250 + Rs.200)
Fortis: Rs. 5900 + Rs.250 Fortis Registration Fee (Inquired over the phone)

Both said they need 3 passport photos but Elbit took only ONE photo from me. Along with one copy of the passport.

As mentioned above, cost per applicant as on 15-Jan-2018 is INR 4100. You will have to call up Fortis and enquire if the same holds good for kids as well.

So strange. Why are they quoting higher on the phone than the package is? Maybe they're tired (I'm sure their pay sucks like it does for most low-level staff) and want to discourage applicants! But more likely is that they're quoting the potential full cost of all tests, some of which are perhaps not requested by CIC for all applicants.

Anyway, based on reviews on Practo, I thought Elbit was going to be a bit of a pain but actually they were very professional and friendly (and most importantly had TP in the washrooms, haha). Which reminds me: should say so on Practo.

I just called up Elbit and they told me the charge would be 7100/- for the medical test. Why so different from what you guys have quoted?

That's really strange. My suggestion would be for you to just go to whichever is closest to you (I didn't go to Fortis on principle because who charges a registration fee on top of the test package fee that's earning them like 400% profit already; it's ridiculous) and see what you're charged.

For me, it was INR 3750 at Elbit and for the person above it seems to have been INR 4350 at Fortis, so it's unlikely you're going to be charged almost double in either of the clinics.

I talked to them again and this time they quoted 5500/-. When did you get your test done at Elbit? I'm going there tomorrow.

I was informed at the immigration desk of Fortis that the e - Medical portal at Fortis is not working for the past 1 week. I am waiting to receive a message from them. God knows when they will do it. It's already close to 2 weeks.
I should have avoided Fortis, should have listened to canadaVisa10

I called up Fortis and they said 410+130=4230/- for the medical test for Canada PR. Whereas Elbit said it is 3900/- for the same test. Has anyone checked with them recently? I guess their charges are fixed and more consistent now and do not fluctuate like many earlier posts have indicated.

But Fortis gives out appointments on Saturdays too which could be beneficial while Elbit usually works from Mon to Fri. Only occasionally Elbit gives appointments on Saturdays.
