Understudies working under "Subsidizing from SURGE" just at IITK get a stipend. An award in addition to a recognition endorsement is given to those SURGE understudies who produce extraordinary quality exploration amid the period.

Number of chose understudy is currently expanded upto 300 (60 understudies from "Subsidizing from SURGE" and 240 understudies from "Financing from Institute Project + Self Funding + Industry-IITK tie up") in SURGE augmented system.

Point by point declaration with respect to SURGE authoritative charges will be made later. The SURGE authoritative charges are not refundable.
