(2) No excess fee shall be collected by any person either for himself or on behalf of such self financed school or on behalf of the management of such self financed school. (3) No school itself or on its behalf shall collect any donation or capitation fee under any name whatsoever, or receive any deposit under any head to the school management, school trust, company, or any trustee or member of the school. If any parents or guardian of a student has paid voluntarily any above referred amount, he shall inform the concerned Fee Regulatory Committee, the details of such payment on affidavit. Such non-disclosure shall amount to abatement of the profiteering committed by the school management.
