As per the fellowship criteria, If the student qualifies for JRF/NET (UGC, CSIR, INSPIRE, etc.), within one year the University will provide Rs. 5000/- per month as a cash incentive. If the student has not qualified JRF/NET (UGC, CSIR, INSPIRE, etc.). University will provide fellowships at the same rate as prevailing for JRF in the first year. However, it is expected that the student will qualify for JRF within the year.
If the student does not qualify for JRF/NET (UGC, CSIR, INSPIRE, etc.), from the second year onwards, the University will reduce the fellowship to 50% of the JRF rate. In case a student receives PMRF at any stage, the University will not provide a top-up fellowship.
