Your message references charges "as shown below," but no specific charges or sections were actually included, so I can't attach a fee figure to particular sections of law without that information. What follows explains exactly how bail application fees work in India, so that once you share the specific charges from your FIR or chargesheet, any quote you receive will make sense within this framework.

Two entirely separate categories of fees apply to any bail application. The first is the statutory court fee, fixed under the Court Fees Act, 1870, as amended by individual states since court fees fall within state legislative domain. These fees are modest and don't scale meaningfully with the seriousness of your charge. At the Magistrate or Sessions Court level, statutory fees for a bail application typically range from around fifty rupees to a few hundred rupees depending on the state, and in the High Court, this figure is somewhat higher but still relatively small, generally a few hundred to around a thousand rupees, plus minor incidental charges for certified copies and registry processing.

The second category, and the one that actually varies significantly, is your lawyer's professional fee, driven almost entirely by the complexity of your charges, the forum, and the experience of the advocate engaged. A relatively simple bail application for a less serious non-bailable offence before a Magistrate costs a modest sum in smaller towns and somewhat more in metropolitan cities, depending on the lawyer's standing. Matters involving serious economic offences, multiple overlapping sections of the Indian Penal Code or Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, or special legislation such as the Prevention of Money Laundering Act or the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, require considerably more preparation and often several hearings, attracting far higher professional fees, sometimes running into several lakhs when senior counsel are engaged before the High Court.

The nature of your specific charges changes this picture substantially. A straightforward Section 420 IPC allegation is generally simpler and less expensive to defend at the bail stage than a combination such as Sections 406, 420, and 120B together, a common clubbing in financial fraud cases requiring more detailed argument around each accused person's specific role. Matters under special statutes carrying additional bail conditions, such as Section 45 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act or Section 37 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, involve materially more complex legal argument, and this is reflected directly in the professional fees such matters command. By contrast, a matter under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, dealing with cheque dishonour, is treated as bailable in most circumstances and is considerably simpler and less expensive to handle.

Because your actual fee depends entirely on the specific sections you're facing and the court where your matter is or will be filed, sharing the exact charges will let any quote you receive be grounded in the real complexity of your case rather than a generic estimate.
