The Aditya Birla Scholarship for Engineering Excellence is a flagship corporate-foundation programme funded by the Aditya Birla Group's CSR. It is highly selective — awarded to a handful of top-performing students each year from India's top engineering institutes, including all IITs, BITS Pilani / Goa / Hyderabad, top NITs, and a few other elite engineering schools.
The scholarship typically covers full tuition fees, plus a monthly stipend that takes total support to Rs. 1.75 lakh to Rs. 2.5 lakh per year. Selection involves academic excellence, leadership track record, and a multi-stage interview process. Awardees commit to participate in Aditya Birla's mentorship and internship pipeline, though they are not bound to join the group post-graduation.
Eligibility: enrolled in first-year UG at one of the listed top-tier institutes, demonstrated leadership and extracurricular excellence, and Indian citizen. Apply through the Aditya Birla Group scholarship portal in the year following admission (typically August to October).
