Overview

About FAFPS

The Financial Assistance for Purchase of Stationery is a welfare scheme of the Department for the Welfare of SC/ST/OBC, Government of NCT of Delhi. It gives cash support to school students from Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribe, Other Backward Class and minority communities so they can buy stationery for their studies.

The scheme covers students in Classes 1 to 12 who study at government, government-aided or recognised schools in Delhi. The department pays the support as a monthly amount over the school year, set according to the student's class.

Eligibility is limited to Delhi-resident students from these communities, and the department applies a family income ceiling and a minimum attendance condition. Students apply through the Delhi e-District portal, where the department verifies and processes the claim.
