E-MAIL HELPLINE

For any queries related to INSPIRE Internship Science Camps, INSPIRE-Scholarship for Higher
Education (SHE), INSPIRE Fellowship and INSPIRE Faculty Fellowship, please contact the
following officers by e-mail. Under normal circumstances, the officers will respond to your
query within 3 Working Days. In case you do not receive a reply to your e-mail within 3
Working Days,you can send an e-mail to the Head, INSPIREProgramme Division (whose e-mail
is also given below).

Please note that the INSPIRE Division has to look at a big database, and at times discuss the
case, before answering a query. You are, therefore, requested to have a little patience and not
mark copies of your e-mails to more than one authority at a time in anxiety. This only floods the
e-mail system and delays the processing because of repetitive receipts from several sources.
