Here is a list of some dental colleges along with the stipend provided in 1st year (in INR)

These were to give you an idea of how the stipend may vary from college to college. If you have any specific college in your mind then feel free to ask more about it. It would be better to aim for colleges with better stipend since they automatically indicate the scope of the concerned college.

Hope it was of some help!
