The proposals should focus on innovative ideas to improve data quality on the following aspects:
Fulfilling data needs and bridging gaps
Mode of data collection
Questionnaire designing
Social desirability bias
Interview setting
Survey implementation
Eligibility and Funding
Students pursuing their PhD degree or equivalent in any Indian academic or research institute are eligible to apply. We seek proposals from student–faculty teams in order to promote innovations, build skills and foster collaborations between the researchers and senior faculty. NCAER-NDIC will support a budget of up to Rs. 6 lakhs for a period of 12 months. The budget should clearly indicate the actual needs and modes of utilisation of the funding for the proposed project. There is provision for five such grants. Only one grant from each applicant will be considered for funding.
