There is financial help available from the Indian government, but only after you’ve been in India for three consecutive years. This is why you need to provide evidence of financial self-sufficiency when applying for a study visa.
As for scholarships, they are plentiful. The Indian government is actively seeking to encourage and recruit international students. It’s no secret that the Indian government wants to make the country as popular a study abroad destination as the US or the UK.
The most prestigious of these is the Study in India Scholarship. The scholarship offers a completely free ride for recipients and can be awarded for up to five academic years. There is a monthly cap on living costs, but it’s a high one. The scholarship even includes free Hindi lessons, giving you a strong launch pad into the world’s second-largest labor market. This scholarship is unfortunately not open to those with Pakistani passports.
