This is the postgraduate half of HDFC Bank's Parivartan ECSS — Educational Crisis Scholarship Support. It carries the largest single amount in the programme: ₹75,000 for a professional postgraduate course.
ECSS is not a pure merit prize and not a pure means test. It is built for a student who was managing until something happened at home, and is now at risk of dropping out. The school and undergraduate halves are separate scholarships with their own forms; this page is the postgraduate one.
Who can apply
- You are an Indian national
- You are pursuing a postgraduation course in a recognised college or university in India. The programme's own list names general courses — MCom, MA and similar — and professional courses — MTech, MBA and similar
- You passed the previous qualifying examination with at least 55% marks
- Your annual family income is ₹2.5 lakh or less
What you get
- General postgraduate courses — ₹35,000
- Professional postgraduate courses — ₹75,000
It is a one-time grant, not a per-year commitment. The gap between the two figures is wide, and it is decided by the course you are in, not by your marks.
The crisis part, which is the whole point of the scheme
Preference goes to applicants facing a personal or family crisis that occurred during the past three years, because of which they can no longer bear the cost of education and are at risk of dropping out.
That shapes the paperwork. The programme lists, among others, a medical report or a prescription from a certified doctor where the crisis is an illness or medical emergency, and an official government document confirming impact where it is a natural disaster. Collect that proof before you open the form. If nothing of the kind has happened in your family, you can still apply — a preference is not a bar.
Documents to keep ready
- Passport size photograph
- Previous year's marksheet (2024-25 for the postgraduate component)
- Identity proof — Aadhaar card, Voter ID or Driving Licence
- Current year admission proof
- Income proof
- Bank account details
- Crisis documentation, where it applies
How to apply
Apply on the programme's own site, parivartanecss.com. The postgraduate block has its own Apply Now button, separate from the school and undergraduate ones. Three forms sit on one page, so check the heading above the button before you begin.

There is no fee to apply, and nobody needs to be paid to fill this form for you.
Where this scholarship's information comes from
The site parivartanecss.com is operated by Buddy4Study; HDFC Bank's role, in the site's own words, is as the funding partner under its CSR initiative Parivartan. That site is the programme's dedicated home and the place the application actually happens, which is why we use it as the source. Dates quoted for this scheme on general scholarship-listing sites are a different thing and have been wrong before for other programmes. Check the programme site before you rely on a date.
Dates checked on 14 August 2026. Deadlines in India move without notice, so confirm on the official portal linked above before you apply.
