    Dear dhanjit basumatary, LPU NEST (national entrance and scholarship test) is a National level test CONDUCTED by the LPU ALL-OVER India. The test allows to asses the eligibility (wherever applicable) of the candidate for that programme. On the basis of candidate's performance in this Exam, he/she can also avail the scholarship on the programme fee. The scholarship benefit availed by LPU NEST will also remain valid through-out the standard duration of the programme. Means, LPU NEST scholarship for B.Tech programme will remain valid for 4 years. I hope it was useful.
