Mahindra All India Talent Scholarships Education Main Page | Edu.after 10th | Online study | Scholarships Established by the late Mr. K. C. Mahindra in 1953, the K. C. Mahindra Education Trust aims to ‘Transform the lives of people in India through education, by providing financial assistance and recognition to them, across age groups and across income strata'. It was registered as a Public Charitable Trust under the Bombay Public Trusts Act, 1950. The K.C. Mahindra Education Trust has undertaken a number of education initiatives to make a difference to the lives of deserving students. The Trust promotes education mainly by way of scholarships. It has provided more than Rs. 13.80 crores (approximately US $ 3.0 million) in the form of grants, scholarships and loans. Some of these scholarships were instituted as far back as the 1950’s, while others were founded recently. These are funded through an investment portfolio, the main donors of which are the Mahindra Group of companies. The scheme envisages awarding scholarships to Indian students with good scholastic records belonging to lower income group families. They must have passed SSC or HSC or equivalent examinations and have secured admission in government or any other recognised Polytechnic Institute for Diploma Courses in India. The scheme is to encourage and support young students to pursue job-oriented Diploma Courses at recognised Polytechnics. Under this scheme, scholarships of Rs. 5,000/- per annum are awarded to selected students to study at various polytechnics in India. The scholarship can be awarded to a student for a maximum of 3 years. SSC and HSC examinations in various States in India are held during March-April. Results are normally announced during May-June every year. Admission to Polytechnics in various States generally commence from August every year. During June/July or earlier every year advertisements are released throughout India inviting applications for the scholarships. Selected candidates will be interviewed at various centres in India. To make it easier for the selected candidates to appear for the final interviews for the scholarship award, the candidate can apply to any of the centres, indicating the most convenient centre where he/she can appear if selected by the Trust for the final interview.
