Who can apply?
Minimum qualification
First-year technical diploma or second-year lateral-entry admission in an AICTE-approved programme
Eligibility conditions

Read all post-specific conditions in the original notice. A discovery tag or this summary is not an authority-issued eligibility decision or a selection guarantee.
Income and household conditions
The linked scheme guidelines say annual family income must not exceed ₹8 lakh. The FAQ uses "less than ₹8 lakh"; applicants exactly at the boundary need institute/AICTE confirmation.
Who cannot apply
No additional hostel/medical grant. Other financial assistance, non-approved/non-technical courses, postgraduate/dual-degree study, dropout and failure conditions are governed by the published restrictions. Renewal requires promotion.
