In 2014, Germany's 16 states abolished tuition fees for undergraduate students at all public German universities. This means that currently both domestic and international undergraduates at public universities in Germany can study for free, with just a small fee to cover administration and other costs per semester. This good fortune may not last however. In autumn 2017 the south-west state of Baden-Wrttemberg reintroduced tuition fees for non-EU students, and it's possible other states will follow suit in the coming years.
Non-EU students in Baden-Wrttemberg must now pay tuition fees of 3,000 (~US$3,500) per year, while those gaining a second degree pay a reduced fee of 1,300 (~US$1,600) per year. The cost of living in Germany is more expensive in some areas than others Munich, for example, is considered the most expensive German city to live in, with living costs averaging about 12,000 (~US$13,900) per year. By comparison, the average annual living costs in Germany are around 10,200 (~US$11,800). Rent will be your largest monthly expense, though this is cheaper if you live in a shared flat (average rent of 280/~US$340 per month) or a student hall of residence (234/~US$290 per month). Based on data from DAAD, other average monthly costs are as follows:
168 (~US$205) for food
42 (~US$52) for clothes
94 (~US$115) for transport
31 (~US$38) for telephone, internet and TV license
20 (~US$25) for work/study materials
61 (~US$75) for leisure activities
To find living expenses for specific cities in Germany (and compare them to the average costs in your home city) Numbeo is a useful tool. You won't need a visa to study in Germany if you're an EU national or citizen of Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway or Switzerland. Otherwise, expect to pay 60 (~US$74) for your student visa, but there are also fee reductions or waivers for Schengen visas. In order to fulfill the visa requirements, you will need to show proof you have, or have access to, around 8,700 (~US$10,680) per year or 725 (~US$890) per month to cover your living costs.

Dear Archita,
Certain points in this regards:
(#1) Only PCB wouldn't help. Some entrance exam requires maths as a mandatory subject also because of the huge involvement of physics, mechanics and astronomy. It is really important to have strong understanding of physics, chemistry and biology. Do not worry if you are not good with maths as you can still do something with the other subjects. You must remember that as far as Astrobiology is concerned you will be mainly self-taught.
(#2) Astrobiology, astrochemistry are some field which are under-evolve in India. You know that there is only one serious, dedicated institute in India which is sepcilized in this field.
Indian Astrobiology Research Center - They offers International Diploma programme in Astrobiology. However to widening the scope, you must to go abroad.
(#3) After your Bachelor's, Masters, and essentially Ph.D. you will work as Faculty or Research Analyst in Earth Science department or IARC itself. Nothing steps involved in it. IARC offers 4 months of Diploma in astrobiology.
