The Eligibility “Reality Check”
Don’t waste your time applying if you don’t meet these three hard rules:
-
Year of Study: You must be entering your final year (B.Tech/M.Tech) during the 2026-2027 session.
-
No Backlogs: DRDO is very strict about this. If you have an active backlog, your application will be rejected immediately.
-
Attendance: You must commit to a minimum of 15 working days of physical attendance per month.
The Stipend Breakdown: You don’t get paid monthly. You receive ₹15,000 after 3 months and the remaining ₹15,000 after 6 months. If you leave early, you lose the certificate and the pending stipend.
