What is the MSME registration fee vs Udyam registration fee?

Are there government fees after Udyam registration (for schemes/benefits)?
The Udyam registration itself is free. However, specific schemes under Udyam may have their own costs — e.g., NSIC registration (for government tender benefits) has fees based on turnover, CGTMSE loan guarantee scheme has guarantee fees, and ISO certification (subsidized under MSME) may have nominal costs. Udyam registration as a document is always free.
