Additionally, if the research scholar is a first author in a Q1 or Q2 journal, a further credit of INR 30,000 will be provided. The scheme launched under IoE initiative of the Government of India will also offer financial support of INR 8,000 per month to the international PhD students at BHU, who don’t have any other fellowship.
