I started paying around 250 Euro when starting my study at the university (2009). This term I had to pay aroung 290 Euro.

The fee for the TU Berlin is composed of:

Verwaltungsgebühr (gem. § 2 Abs. 7 BerlHG) (administrative fee)

50,00 €

Beitrag zur Studierendenschaft (Contribution to the student body)

8,70 €

Beitrag zum Studentenwerk (Contribution to the Student Services)

48,77 €

Beitrag zum Semesterticket (Contribution to the semester ticket)

179,40 €

Beitrag zum Sozialfonds zum Semesterticket (Contribution to the Social Fund for Semesterticket)

3,50 €

= 290,37 €

Of course it is still much cheaper than to study in other countries. But the fees are growing and you have to pay for the semester ticket, which is essentially a ticket for all public transportation in Berlin, even though you wouldn't need it.
