Makeup Course EMI & Payment Options — Faridabad 2026

Money is the most honest barrier between an aspiring makeup artist and a real career. We have sat across from dozens of students who knew exactly what they wanted — the craft, the studio, the certification — but who had to pause for one practical reason: how to pay for it without putting the rest of their life on hold. This guide is written for them. Specifically, it explains every payment route we currently offer, how the early-bird Rs. 80,000 + GST rate changes the EMI maths, and what gets paid when.

We run our academy out of the Sector 16 Huda Market studio in Faridabad, where Shivangi Verma personally teaches every batch from 12 PM to 5 PM across twenty days. The format is intentionally small — only 10 students per intake — because hands-on attention is the entire point of the programme. If you want the full course outline, the 20-Day Professional Makeup Course landing page covers what is included; this article focuses on the money side.

Before we get into installment plans, one quick framing note. The fear we hear most from students is, “I will spend a chunk of money and walk out with theory, not a career.” That fear is reasonable and it is the right thing to interrogate. The course was built specifically to refuse that outcome — daily practice on live models, a final assessment shoot with a professional model, a professional brush kit you keep, certification on completion, and lifetime alumni support — so before you weigh EMI options, weigh whether the programme is worth committing to in the first place.

Why EMI matters when choosing a course

Most aspiring makeup artists we meet are not short of talent. They are short of time, support, or a guaranteed monthly income to write a single large cheque against. EMI matters because it converts a one-time financial decision into a manageable monthly one — the same way a working artist invoices a bride in stages rather than asking for the entire fee upfront.

We also believe the conversation around EMI deserves more honesty than it usually gets. A payment plan is only useful if the underlying course actually delivers a return. If you pay Rs. 80,000 + GST in three or six installments and leave the academy unable to do a real bridal job, you have not borrowed sensibly — you have borrowed badly. So the EMI question and the academy-quality question are the same question, and we treat them that way in every enrolment call we take.

That is why we are direct about who teaches and what is included. Shivangi has been an active working bridal MUA for 14+ years, with over 1,000 brides served and 62 Google reviews at a 5-star rating. She is not a retired educator — she walks into class on Monday from a wedding she did on Sunday. EMI buys you access to that kind of teaching, not a generic textbook walk-through, and that distinction is the entire reason students travel from across Delhi NCR to enrol with us in Faridabad.

There is also a practical reason EMI matters in 2026. Brand investment for a working makeup artist is real — your kit will eventually need MAC, NARS, Dior, Huda Beauty, Fenty Beauty, Laura Mercier, Haus Labs and Charlotte Tilbury products, and that builds gradually over the first year of work. Spreading the course fee makes it easier to keep some capital free for that early kit-building stage rather than spending everything on tuition and starting your career under-resourced.

Payment options at Sector 16 Faridabad academy

We currently support four payment routes for the course, and the right one depends on your bank, your card, and how comfortable you are committing the full amount upfront.

1. Full upfront payment. Bank transfer, UPI, or card. The simplest route, and the cleanest for accounting if you are a working professional changing careers and can absorb the fee in one quarter. It also means the loudest possible “yes” to your own commitment, which some students find clarifying.

2. Split payment in two parts. A booking amount to lock your seat, with the balance due before the batch begins. This is the most common option among students who want to commit immediately but are timing their cash flow against a monthly salary or a freelance payout cycle.

3. No-cost EMI on credit card. Most major banks (HDFC, ICICI, SBI, Axis, Kotak) offer 3-month, 6-month, and 9-month EMI conversions on the full course fee at point of sale. Whether the EMI is genuinely “no-cost” depends on your bank’s current offer cycle, which is why we always ask students to call their card provider and confirm the specific tenure before paying.

4. External education-loan EMI. A few of our students each year choose to fund the course through a personal-finance lender or an education-loan partner. We are happy to share the supporting documents (course brochure, fee receipt, schedule) that lenders typically ask for; we do not, however, recommend a specific lender, because terms shift constantly and the right one depends on your credit profile.

Whichever route you choose, the registration paperwork is the same, the seat is held the same way, and the Sector 16 Huda Market batch dates do not change. You can start the conversation directly on WhatsApp at +91 9354888093 and we will walk you through the option that fits your situation.

What gets paid up front vs in instalments

Here is how the structure typically works in practice. The first payment is the seat-locking booking amount. This is the number that converts a casual conversation into a confirmed enrolment in the next batch. Because we cap each batch at 10 students, the booking amount is genuinely meaningful — once ten seats are paid for, the batch is closed and the next intake is the only option. Students who hesitate at this stage often end up paying the regular rate later because the early-bird window has shifted by then.

The balance — whether paid in full before the batch starts or split into a card-EMI tenure — covers the rest of tuition and the included resources. The included resources are not a footnote. Specially curated training products are yours to use throughout the course, the professional brush kit is yours to keep, you get certification on completion, and a final assessment shoot with a professional model is built into the schedule. Lifetime alumni support is also part of the package, which means you can come back to ask Shivangi questions about real client situations long after your batch has ended.

Nothing is paid separately on the side. There is no surprise material fee, no extra charge for the final shoot, no add-on for the certification, no “premium products” upsell mid-course. The early-bird Rs. 80,000 + GST or the regular Rs. 1,50,000 + GST is the all-in number for the entire 20-day programme.

How early-bird Rs. 80,000 + GST affects EMI maths

This is where the early-bird window genuinely changes how an installment plan feels. The regular fee for our Basics to Advanced course is Rs. 1,50,000 + GST. The current early-bird rate is Rs. 80,000 + GST — a Rs. 70,000 saving against the regular rate, available for a limited window before the next batch.

Run the maths on a simple 6-month no-cost card EMI. At the regular rate of Rs. 1,50,000 + GST, the principal converted into 6 monthly installments works out to roughly Rs. 25,000 per month before GST, plus the GST component itself. At the early-bird rate of Rs. 80,000 + GST, the same 6-month tenure brings the principal down to roughly Rs. 13,333 per month before GST.

That is not just a smaller monthly number — it is a different category of decision. Rs. 13,000 a month is the kind of figure most working students or career-changers can carry alongside rent, transport and existing kit purchases. Rs. 25,000 a month is, for many, the figure that delays enrolment by another batch cycle. Over a 9-month tenure (where no-cost windows exist for some banks), the early-bird monthly figure shrinks further to roughly Rs. 8,800-9,000 before GST, which is closer to a single bridal-trial payout from your first paying client.

It is also worth being explicit about what we are not promising. GST is paid on top of the base amount, and exact EMI charges depend on whether your card is in a no-cost EMI offer for that quarter. We always recommend running the precise figure with your card provider before locking the tenure. But the broad shape of the difference — Rs. 70,000 saved across the same number of months — is what makes the early-bird rate genuinely worth chasing rather than waiting for a more “convenient” later batch.

One quick clarification on a number you may have seen elsewhere. An older Rs. 1,00,000 + GST figure circulated on some legacy directory listings. That figure is no longer current. Our professional makeup course in Faridabad is Rs. 1,50,000 + GST at regular price, with the limited-time Rs. 80,000 + GST early-bird rate as the active offer for the next intake.

How to lock in the rate before paying in full

The most common question we get from students who like the early-bird number but are still mid-EMI-conversation with their bank is: how do I lock the rate without paying the full amount today? The answer is the booking amount. A confirmed booking against your name in the next batch holds your seat at the rate at which the booking is made. If you pay the booking amount this week against the early-bird rate, the early-bird rate is the rate that applies to your enrolment, even if the public-facing offer cycles back to a different number before your batch begins.

Practically, this is what we recommend if you want the early-bird rate but need a few weeks to finalise your EMI plan. First, send a WhatsApp message to +91 9354888093 saying you want to confirm a seat in the next batch. Second, submit the Course inquiry form so we have your details on file and can share the next batch dates and seat availability. Third, pay the booking amount — we will share the exact figure on the call, and it is a small percentage of the total fee, designed to be easy to settle from any salary cycle. Fourth, take the next 7-14 days to finalise your EMI tenure, talk to your card provider about the no-cost window, or arrange your education-loan documentation. Finally, pay the balance via your chosen route before your batch start date.

The Sector 16 Huda Market academy works on a fixed batch calendar — 20 days, 12 PM to 5 PM, capped at 10 students — so the seat-locking step is a real one, not paperwork theatre. Once the batch is full, the next batch is the next option, and the early-bird offer may not still be active for that intake.

Two more practical notes. First, our team is not commission-driven — we are not going to push you onto the highest-tenure EMI option to make a number. Shivangi personally signs off on every enrolment, and our preference is genuinely that you choose the payment route that lets you focus on the craft once class begins rather than on next month’s payment notification. Second, we will never ask for a non-refundable amount before you have actually seen the studio. You are welcome to visit Booth No 70-71, First Floor, Sector 16 Huda Market, Faridabad first, meet Shivangi, look at the kit and the product wall, and only then pay the booking amount.

This is also where students who worry about reputation tend to relax. A 13+ year career, international training from Makeup Studio in the Netherlands, 1,000+ brides served, and a five-star rating across 62 Google reviews is not a marketing story — it is a verifiable working record. EMI is not a leap of faith; it is a structured way of paying for something you can examine, in person, before paying.

FAQ

What is the lowest monthly EMI possible on the 20-Day Professional Makeup Course?

The lowest comfortable monthly figure right now is roughly Rs. 13,000-14,000 per month at the early-bird Rs. 80,000 + GST rate on a 6-month no-cost card EMI tenure (exact number depends on your bank’s current offer and the GST treatment). At a 9-month tenure the monthly figure is lower still, though no-cost windows are less common at longer tenures. We recommend confirming the precise figure directly with your card provider before locking the tenure.

Is the early-bird Rs. 80,000 + GST rate guaranteed if I only pay a booking amount now?

Yes. The booking amount confirms your seat and locks your enrolment at the rate at which the booking is made. As long as you complete the balance payment before your batch start date, the early-bird rate applies to you even if the public offer changes by then. This is the single most important reason not to wait — the rate is locked at booking, not at final payment.

Will I still get the same products, brush kit and certification if I pay via EMI?

Yes — fully and identically. The specially curated training products (yours to use during the course), the professional brush kit (yours to keep), the certification on completion, the final assessment shoot with a professional model, and lifetime alumni support are all part of the package regardless of whether you pay upfront, split-pay, or use a card EMI. We do not run a tiered enrolment.

I’m scared I’ll spend the money and not get clients afterwards. How does the course address that?

This is the most important fear to surface, and we take it seriously. The course covers more than makeup technique. Portfolio building from the final assessment shoot, client handling and consultation skills, pricing and basic business setup are all part of the 20-day curriculum alongside HD Makeup, Airbrush, Glass Skin and bridal techniques. Lifetime alumni support means you can ask Shivangi specific questions about real client situations long after your batch ends — and that ongoing access is the part of the value students tend to underestimate when they are deciding whether to enrol.

Is the course suitable for complete beginners, or do I need prior makeup experience?

The course is designed to take students from basics to advanced, so prior experience is not required. Hands-on practice on live models every day is what closes the gap between “I learned about makeup” and “I can do a real bridal job for a paying client.” Career-changers and freshers both succeed on this format — what matters is your willingness to put in the daily practice, not your starting level.

Can I visit the Sector 16 Faridabad studio before paying anything?

Absolutely. We genuinely prefer it. You are welcome to visit Booth No 70-71, First Floor, Sector 16 Huda Market, Faridabad, meet Shivangi, see the kit and product wall, and have a no-pressure conversation about your goals and the right batch for you. Call or WhatsApp +91 9354888093 to arrange a time that fits your schedule.

If you have read this far, you are not casually shopping for a payment plan — you are deciding whether to commit to a craft. We would rather you make that decision after seeing the studio in person, looking at the included products and brush kit, and asking Shivangi directly what the next 20 days will actually look like. Shivangi Verma’s makeup course is built to give working artists their first real portfolio and their first real client toolkit, and the early-bird window is the cleanest moment to lock the seat. The block below has the three fastest ways to start that conversation.
