Hi Alok,
Thank you for contacting the Microsoft Community.
I understand your discount is only showing 50% compared to the 100% previously. Let me provide you some details as to what is happening as well as the correct support you may need to contact.
Yes, you are correct. ESI has implemented a new policy effective March 1, 2023 that exam providers will now charge 50% of the applicable price of the exam, thus, deducting from the 100% discount.
If you have additional questions and clarifications, please reach out directly to the ESI Support about these updates. You may create a support ticket using the direct link below:
While this is true, you may want to take advantage and participate to Microsoft events such as the Microsoft Build | Cloud Skills Challenge where completing the challenge will entitle you for a 100% discount voucher on selected exams. Please refer to its Official Rules for more details.
