CHAPTER – 1: INTRODUCTION ABOUT NTA AND JOINT CSIR- UGC NET
1.1. About National Testing Agency (NTA)
The Ministry of Education (MoE), Government of India (GOI) has established the National
Testing Agency (NTA) as an independent, autonomous, and self-sustained premier
testing organization under the Societies Registration Act (1860) for conducting efficient,
transparent and international standard tests in order to assess the competency of
candidates for admissions to premier higher education institutions.

conducting of Joint CSIR-UGC NET June 2024 which is a test to determine the eligibility
of Indian nationals for ‘award of Junior Research Fellowship and appointment as
Assistant Professor’, ‘appointment as Assistant Professor and admission to Ph.D.’ and
‘admission to Ph.D. only’ in Indian universities and colleges.
1.2. About Joint CSIR-UGC Fellowship
CSIR and UGC provide Research Fellowships for training in research methods under the expert guidance of faculty members and scientists working in University Departments, National Laboratories, and Institutions in various fields of Science. Joint CSIR-UGC NET Fellowships are tenable in Universities, IITs, Post Graduate Colleges, Government Research Establishments (including those of CSIR), Research & Development establishments of recognized public or private sector industrial firms, and other recognized institutions.

1.3. About Junior Research Fellowship Stipend
The stipend of a JRF selected through CSIR-National Eligibility Test (NET) will be Rs. 37,000/- per month for the first two years. In addition, an annual contingent grant of Rs. 20,000/- is reimbursed directly to the fellow. The Fellowship will be governed by the terms and conditions of CSIR, UGC, or Research Scheme, as applicable.
Upon completion of two years as a JRF and if the Fellow is registered for Ph.D., the Fellowship will be upgraded to SRF (NET), and the stipend will be increased to Rs. 42,000/- per month for the 3rd and subsequent years. This upgrade is based on the assessment of the Fellow’s research progress and achievements through an interview conducted by an Expert Committee. The Expert Committee consists of the Guide, Head of the Department, and an External Member from outside the University/Institution who is an expert in the relevant field and holds a rank not below that of Professor/Associate Professor. Ideally, the External Member should serve as the chairman of the three-member Committee. If the guide happens to be the Head of the Department, the Dean, Faculty of Science, or any senior member of the Department may be associated as the third member of the Committee. If the Committee does not recommend up-gradation or if the fellow has not registered for Ph.D., the candidate will continue as JRF with a stipend of Rs. 37,000/- per month for the 3rd year, or their fellowship may be terminated, depending upon the recommendation of the Committee. The decision of CSIR in this regard shall be final. The progress of the research work of JRF will be assessed by a duly constituted three-member assessment committee again at the end of the 3rd year for such up-gradation.
