✍️ Editor's Note
When applying for the e-Kalyan scholarship, the most common reason for rejection is an expired Income Certificate or an incorrect Bonafide Certificate format. Ensure your Income Certificate is issued for the current financial year and that the fee structure in your Bonafide Certificate matches exactly what you declare online. Since the deadline is July 31st, do not wait for the final week, as portal traffic often slows down and bank verification processes take significant time.
