You’ll typically need the following documents for a scholarship application:

- Identity proof: Aadhaar card linked to your mobile number
- Academic records: Mark sheets and certificates for Class 10, 12, and graduation
- Income certificate: Valid as of the application start date
- Category certificate: Caste or disability certificate, if applicable
- Bank details: First page of your bank passbook (account in your name, Aadhaar-linked)
- Proof of enrollment: Bonafide certificate from your current institution
- Recent passport photo
- Domicile certificate: If the scholarship requires state residency

Costs:
Most scholarships do not charge an application fee, but some do (for example, certain government scholarships may charge ₹500 - ₹1000, subject to change). You may also incur minor costs for document attestation, translation, or courier services.
