Is there any scholarship for a student who is not coming under the criteria of BPL?
Dear Vandita,
There are several specific scholarships for students of general category who are not in BPL criteria. You can avail only one scholarship at a time. So you can check the following:
1. DST inspire fellowship

This scheme offers twelve thousand scholarships annually and the eligibility criteria are the following:
a) Students who are among the top 1% in twelfth board and are pursuing undergraduate or integrated graduate courses in natural and basic sciences.
b) Students who have secured within top 10,000 ranks in JEE-Main or who have secured top 10,000 rank in NEET and who also opt to study Natural and Basic sciences leading to graduate and post-graduate degree.
c) Students admitted to Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER), National Institute of Science Education and Research (NISER), Department of Atomic Energy Centre for Basic Sciences (DAE-CBS) at the University of Mumbai and who have cleared the internal eligibility criterions of these institutions.
