NIT Srinagar Scholarship 2026: Amount, Eligibility, Selection Criteria

NIT Srinagar provides numerous scholarships primarily funded by the central and state governments, tailored for students from SC/ST categories, economically weaker sections, and minorities. Students with family income below INR 1 lakh receive a 100% tuition fee waiver, while those earning between INR 1-5 lakh get a two-thirds waiver. For students with income above INR 5 lakh, the full tuition fee applies, which is approximately INR 65,000 per semester. The institute facilitates applications for several scholarships, including the National Scholarship Portal (NSP) and the Ministry of Minority Affairs (MOMA) scholarship, which often covers annual tuition fees.

Although the institution itself doesn't offer direct scholarships, it supports students in availing government scholarships. Loan facilities are available through banks like the J&K Bank, ensuring financial support for those who need it. Additionally, various merit-based scholarships are available for students in need. The overall education cost is significantly lower for those from reserved categories and low-income families.

I used to pay total of 77000 per year, which includes my semester registration fees(18500) and hostel fee(20000). Since I am ews student so I don't have to pay the tuition fees. So sc, st, ews, obc, candidates don't need to pay tuition fee. They got waiver

NIT Srinagar - A Beautiful place but Underwhelming Experience

The per semester fees to be paid was 67 thousand which was later revised close to around 90 thousand for newer batches. Everythingh was included in this amount like library fees , tution, caution(7-8 thousand in total paid during first year). For students availing any reservation benifits the fee per semester was significantly low like for SC/ST students it was around 6-8 thousand per semester. Scholarships as such cant be availed for general category students , however if you come through some reservation a one time scholarship was given of around 80 thousand rupees.

NIT Sringar is beautiful!!

NIT Srinagar is the best NIT among the NITs that are in valley. The fees is also the lowest as just 80000 fees and hostels are also cheap here. Every year though fees increases by some percent but still manageable.
