17. Brief
Kishore Vaigyanik Protsahan Yojana (KVPY) is a
scholarship program for identifying and encouraging the
scientific aptitude in students. Students studying in XI
standard to 1st year of any undergraduate program in basic
sciences are selected based on performance in Aptitude test
and interview.

18. Fellowship and
contingency grant
Fellowship and contingency grant are offered from 1st year
of graduation up to pre-Ph.D. level or 5 years (whichever is
earlier). Monthly Stipend of Rs. 5,000/- and Annual
Contingency Grant of Rs. 20,000/- are granted during 1st to
3rd year after which it increases to Monthly Stipend of Rs.
7,000/- and Annual Contingency Grant of Rs. 28,000/- for
next 2 year

19. Eligibility Criteria
• The fellowship of the students appearing for KVPY will
be activated only if they join an undergraduate course in
Basic Sciences, that is, B.Sc./B.S./B.Stat./B.Math./Int.
M.Sc./M.S. in Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics,
Statistics, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Cell Biology,
Ecology, Molecular Biology, Botany, Zoology,
Physiology, Biotechnology, Neurosciences,

Paper I contains 20 questions whereas Paper II contains 10
questions in each section. In the Stream-SA, all questions are
compulsory (Science and Mathematics). In respect of the
streams SB and SX, there will be four sections in Part I
(Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics) and four
sections in Part II (Physics, Chemistry, Biology and
Mathematics). Candidates are allowed to answer any THREE
of the four subjects in Part I and any TWO of the four subjects
in Part II.
