While i do agree with the argument that "time is money", taking that argument too far can cost one significant goodwill. I have not heard of any flight school charging for DGCA paperwork. If you do charge for it then you will be highlighting yourself as different, and not in a good way. A $100/200 is not much but its often the levy of these kind of small extra charges that drives students to judge whether the management at a school is money-hungry or not. Not good at all for word-of-mouth marketing.
BTW, if the school has already verified and stamped the student's logbook, a service i believe is free, then the content of most of the documents can be verified from logbook itself! Don't ask me why the DGCA needs those documents in addition to the logbook! I don't know.

Don't forget to wish the student good luck for the herculean task he is about to undertake.
