UGC to Disburse Scholarship & Fellowship Via DBT System, Details Here

09 November, 2022, New Delhi: The University Grants Commission (UGC) is distributing scholarship and fellowship amounts via Direct Benefit Transfers (DBT). The UGC has come up with a bank portal that is integrated with the public financial management system for easy and timely disbursement of scholarship and fellowship amounts, confirmed the UGC chairperson. 

Scholarship Registration and Login

The UGC has developed this Scholarship and Fellowship Management Portal (SFMP) in association with Canara Bank for disbursement of the scholarship and fellowship amounts.

UGC Scholarship and Fellowship Management Portal – Details

The Scholarship and Fellowship Management Portal (SFMP) is a management portal run by the UGC for the disbursement of scholarship and fellowship amounts. In accordance with the monthly confirmation of candidates by the relevant university, institution, or college, payments to awardees are automatically generated on the authorized web portal, scholarship.canarabank.in, for all recipients linked by university, institution, or college.

The University Grants Commission (UGC) has updated its portal with new features like: 

  • User-Initiated Linking
  • Monthly Payment Confirmation
  • Tracking and Grievance 
  • Onboarding of Academic Users

UGC Scholarship and Fellowship Management Portal – Benefits

Due to the older and delayed payment system and some other issues in the previous SFMP portal, the applicants had to face a lot of issues and delays in receiving their scholarship and fellowship amounts. Therefore, the UGC decided to integrate a bank portal into the SFMP to ensure quick and timely payments of the scholarship amounts to the students. The new changes introduced by the UGC in the SFMS portal are listed down below:

  • Linking initiation by scholar
  • Confirmation initiation of monthly payment by scholar
  • Payment tracking module
  • Paperless work
  • Grievance module for students
  • Onboarding of academic user

The current changes in the system have been adopted to minimize all the inconveniences that the students were facing in usage of the earlier system.

UGC Scholarship and Fellowship Management Portal – Implementation

  • The commission has decided to host a virtual training session for nodal officers on  the official portal from November 14 to November 18, said the UGC chief. 
  • It has been made mandatory for all the institutes to designate the relevant nodal officers who work on the SFMP to attend the training for the portal usage. 
  • The link for the virtual meet will be revealed soon, as confirmed by the Panel chairperson.
