How to Check Your College
NIRF publishes separate 2025 Management rankings and 2025 Engineering rankings. A useful first check is to match the institution's name and location in the relevant list, then confirm its acceptance in the scholarship form.
For example, IIT Hyderabad appears at rank 7 in NIRF Engineering 2025. That ranking is a useful reference; it does not establish an individual student's scholarship eligibility. The student's course and remaining conditions still need checking. If a college name or campus is unclear, ask the programme helpdesk before selecting a different institution.
Scholarship Amount: Why Every Student Does Not Receive ₹10 Lakh
| Course | Annual award |
|---|---|
| B.E./B.Tech. | ₹2,00,000 |
| M.E./M.Tech. | ₹1,50,000 |
| MBA/PGDM/PGP | Fee-linked slabs below |
| Management first-year fee | Annual award |
|---|---|
| Up to ₹5,00,000 | ₹5,00,000 |
| Above ₹5,00,000, up to ₹8,00,000 | ₹8,00,000 |
| Above ₹8,00,000 | ₹10,00,000 |
Fully tuition-waived management students have a separate ₹2,50,000 annual provision for other essential academic expenses. The programme determines the applicable slab using the approved fee structure and institution classification.
Practical budgeting tip: Keep tuition, hostel and other expenses separate in your own college-cost worksheet. Treat an application as a request for support; plan your payments around confirmed funding and any actual award communication.
Documents to Prepare
Keep a photograph, government ID or masked Aadhaar, enrolment proof, Class 10 and 12 marksheets, parental income certificate/ITR, applicant's bank proof and a conduct self-declaration ready. Postgraduate applicants need graduation records. Relevant disability, bereavement, divorce or orphan-status documents support special-category consideration.
Before uploading: Open each scan and check that names, dates, marks and the issuing authority are readable. Give files descriptive names so the correct marksheet or certificate is easy to select. Use the format and size requested by the application form.
How to Apply Online
- Open the Bajaj Finserv programme page and choose your category.
- Register or sign in, then start the application.
- Enter details, upload documents, accept the terms, preview and submit.
- Keep the acknowledgement and a copy of your submission.
During the preview, compare the spelling of your name, course title, college and bank details with the supporting documents. A saved draft should not be treated as a completed submission: look for the form's confirmation. If the portal requests clarification later, refer to the copy you kept rather than recreating details from memory.
Renewal and Other Scholarship Support
Renewal depends on continued enrolment, at least 60% or equivalent academic performance, good conduct, timely documents and progress/fund-use reports, compliance with support-exclusivity conditions, and available programme funds.
Technology applicants cannot be active beneficiaries of another private or government scholarship for the same course. Eligible M.E./M.Tech. applicants receiving a government stipend have an exception, subject to the applicable terms.
If you already receive support, describe it accurately and ask the helpdesk how the rule applies. Keep scholarship, stipend and fee-waiver records together. This makes it easier to explain your situation and respond to a renewal request.
