Is the cost of acting schools like NSD expensive?

Considering the top three acting schools of India let me share the cost of studying at each:

National School of Drama, Delhi:

• It is the least expensive and you will get a chance to earn while studying. 
• You get a monthly stipend of INR 8000. 
• The fees for tuition, hostel and books are negligible. 
• This is the perfect institute for budding theatre actors. 
• This is heavily funded by the government as well.

The Indian School of Acting, Delhi-NCR: 

• It is a relatively new acting school which is growing really fast. 
• It is the best private acting school which has reasonable fees. 
• The fee is INR 45,000 for 6 months and INR 80,000 for 1 year. 

FTII, Pune: 

• It is one of the best government acting schools of India. 
• The fees is nearly 2.5 lakhs for a 2 years course. 
• This is a bit expensive but quite popular.

There are many other acting schools in India which offer quality education like Whistling Woods International, SRFTI and many more. You can learn about them online, and then make your decision.
