Azim Premji Scholarship 2025 Offers ₹30,000 Yearly for Girls’ Higher Education; Apply Now

NEW DELHI: The Azim Premji Foundation is inviting applications for its 2025 scholarship program, aimed at preventing female students from economically weaker backgrounds from dropping out of higher education due to financial constraints. The scholarship provides an annual grant of ₹30,000 to eligible students, with the application deadline for the first round set for tomorrow, September 30, 2025.

This initiative seeks to empower young women who, despite performing well academically, are often forced to abandon their studies after completing the 12th grade. The scholarship funds can be used by the students to cover a range of educational expenses, including tuition fees, books, hostel accommodation, and other related costs, for the entire duration of their degree or diploma course.

The application window for the second round of the scholarship will open on January 10, 2026, and will close on January 31, 2026.
