Description

ANRF invites nominations for the Ramanujan Fellowship, designed to attract outstanding Indian scientists and engineers working abroad who wish to return to India and pursue research. The 2026 nomination window remains open through 31 December 2026 at 5:00 PM. Applications are institution-linked and should be checked carefully against ANRF’s fellowship eligibility, host-institution and nomination requirements before submission. This is primarily a research fellowship opportunity rather than an NGO grant. Development Chapter should list it for researchers, scientists, academic institutions and research organisations seeking national research support and opportunities for returning researchers to establish or continue high-quality research programmes in India.
