PM Internship Scheme 2026: How to Apply for Rs 9000 Monthly Stipend at pminternship.mca.gov.in
The PM Internship Scheme 2026 is open for young Indians who want real work experience with a top company, along with a monthly stipend of Rs 9000 and a one-time grant of Rs 6000. Applications are invited on a rolling basis through the official portal pminternship.mca.gov.in, so eligible candidates can apply when an internship that matches their profile is listed, rather than waiting for a single closing date.
The scheme is aimed at youth who have completed Class 10, Class 12, an ITI course, a diploma or graduation, and who are not currently in full-time employment or full-time education. It is designed as a bridge between classroom learning and the workplace, giving first-time job seekers a chance to learn how a large company actually works, from daily tasks and teamwork to professional communication and workplace discipline. Internships are offered across a wide range of sectors by leading companies, so candidates can look for roles that fit their education and interests.
The financial support is a key part of the scheme. Interns receive a monthly stipend of Rs 9000, along with a one-time grant of Rs 6000 to help with joining costs. This support is meant to make it possible for young people from ordinary families to take up an internship even if it is in another city, without worrying about basic expenses in the first weeks. Insurance cover is also provided under the scheme’s framework, adding a layer of security for interns and their families.
Applying is straightforward, but candidates should prepare before they start. First, visit pminternship.mca.gov.in and register with a mobile number and Aadhaar-linked details, then complete the profile with education, skills and preferences. Next, search the listed internships, read the role description, location and duration carefully, and apply for the roles that genuinely match the profile. Applicants can keep up to three applications active at a time, so it is better to choose carefully than to apply at random.
Selection is made by the company offering the internship, based on the profile and the requirements of the role. Candidates who are shortlisted should keep their documents ready, including educational certificates, identity proof and bank details, and should respond promptly to any communication from the company or the portal. It is also important to apply only through the official portal and never to pay anyone who promises a seat, because the scheme itself does not charge an application fee.
For Haryana’s youth, the scheme is especially useful because it opens doors to companies and sectors that may not have a presence in every district. A completed internship can strengthen a resume, build confidence and sometimes lead to further opportunities, even if it does not guarantee a permanent job. With applications open on a rolling basis in 2026, interested candidates should check the portal regularly, keep their profiles updated, and apply early when a suitable internship appears.
