Scholarship Details and Next Steps
The NMMS scholarship, a centrally sponsored initiative by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), targets Class 8 students from families with an annual income not exceeding ₹3.5 lakh. To qualify, students must secure at least 40% in both MAT and SAT sections (32% for SC/ST candidates). Those selected in the merit list will receive ₹12,000 annually from Class 9 to 12, provided they maintain academic performance and continue studying in government, government-aided, or local body schools.
Qualified students are required to link their Aadhaar numbers with a nationalized bank account to receive the scholarship funds via Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT). Schools and candidates are advised to complete these formalities promptly to ensure timely disbursement.
A Milestone for Gujarat’s Students
The Gujarat NMMS 2025 results mark a significant milestone in the state’s efforts to reduce dropout rates and promote education among underprivileged yet meritorious students. Last year, in 2024, 5,097 students qualified for the scholarship, and a similar number is expected this year, reflecting the competitive nature of the exam and the high standards set by SEB.
Students and parents are encouraged to verify their results carefully and contact the State Examination Board at sebexam.org or through their helpline in case of discrepancies. With the merit list now public, celebrations are underway for those who made the cut, while others gear up for future opportunities.
