About this scholarship
The Post Matric Scholarship for SC/BC students in Haryana is a state-driven financial support system managed via the centralized Har-Chhatravratti portal. It aims to eliminate financial barriers for students from Scheduled Castes (SC) and Backward Classes (BC) who are pursuing higher education after Class 10. By integrating with the Parivar Pehchan Patra (Family ID) system, Haryana has largely automated the verification of income and caste, meaning that students no longer have to manually upload as many physical documents. The scheme covers maintenance allowances and reimburses non-refundable tuition fees, making college and university education highly accessible. The exact amount transferred depends on the course of study and whether the applicant resides in a hostel or is a day scholar. Because the Family ID is the single source of truth for the portal, any discrepancy in family income or caste records in the PPP database will immediately block the scholarship application. Keeping your Family ID completely up to date is strictly required.
Documents you need
- Parivar Pehchan Patra (Family ID)
- Aadhaar card
- Haryana Domicile Certificate
- Caste certificate (SC/BC)
- Income certificate
- Previous class marksheet
- Fee receipt of the current course
- Bank account linked with Aadhaar
How to apply
- Ensure your Parivar Pehchan Patra (Family ID) is fully updated with accurate caste and income details.
- Log in to the Har-Chhatravratti portal using your Family ID.
- Select the SC or BC Post Matric Scholarship scheme from the available list.
- Fill in your academic and bank details, and upload the fee receipt and previous marksheets.
- Submit the application online; it will automatically route to your institution and then to the nodal officer for verification.
Why applications get rejected
- Applying with an unverified Family ID, which causes the Har-Chhatravratti portal to reject the application outright.
- Entering a bank account number that is not linked to Aadhaar, preventing the DBT payment.
- Forgetting to submit the physical copy of the application form to the college, halting the institutional verification step.
