UGC or University Grants Commission was established in 1956 by Government of India to improve the standard of University level education in India. Its objective was to enhance the quality of education which is provided by the institutions after class 12 level. Its work is to regulate the colleges, give recognition to Institutions providing education after class 12 level and to promote equal education by providing funds to Institutions and Universities for easy facilitation of enhancement of University level Education. It also provides scholarships, grants to meritorious students all over India for thepromotion of studies at different levels after class 12th.

The scholarships are provided through different schemes and scholarships programs to students. The scholarships are provided to students at Under-Graduation Level, Post-Graduation Level, Ph.D. level. The students of theweaker economic background are the ones mostly getting the scholarship. The focus of UGC is on providing University Education to students who can't afford higher education but if they are provided education means then they can certainly improve the scenario of Research and Development works of Country. Around 20,000 students are provided scholarships every year by UGC. Scholarships and Grants are also provided to teachers who are into research and development.



Earlier UGC used to use manual mode for scholarship and grants distribution but after MHRDs notice, the mode of providing scholarship was shifted to digital. MHRD or Ministry of Human Resource Development has decided to provide scholarships through Direct Benefits Transfer (DBT) mode. Distribution of scholarships will be done through Public Financial Management System. A portal has been set-up for migration and legacy problems in DBT mode. A portal has also been setup for tracking of grants and scholarships stage of payment and document verification.

The MHRD has also allotted a phone number (01123235640) and an email id 
(ugcfellowship.ugc@gmail.com) to help students regarding their doubts and problems relating to disbursal of fellowships, grants, and scholarships. According to the new system, UGC scholarships will be transferred directly into the student's bank account which has to be linked with AADHAR for Identity Verification. In case AADHAR is not present, than any other government document has to be presented for verification of Identity. Satta matka
