The Asha Shree Endowment Scholarship supports Indian students from economically weaker sections who are pursuing doctoral research in socially relevant fields. This need-based scholarship provides financial assistance to cover academic and living expenses during the entire duration of the PhD program, provided the student maintains high academic performance. Since its inception, the endowment has enabled deserving candidates to complete their research without financial constraints, fostering contributions to society through education.

Open to Indian nationals enrolled in a full-time PhD program in any discipline with a focus on social or community welfare. Applicants must belong to economically underprivileged backgrounds, with preference given to those from marginalized communities such as SC, ST, OBC, EBC, EWS, or PwD categories. The scholarship requires consistent academic excellence, demonstrated through past records and supervisor recommendations.

Interested candidates must submit an application through the official portal listed on the Asha Shree Endowment website. The application requires academic transcripts, proof of enrollment in a PhD program, income certificate, and a research proposal outlining the social relevance of the study. Shortlisted applicants may be called for an interview or further documentation before final selection.
