How the application really works
Apply through the Ojas page, then expect screening and a panel pitch. Verify current seat and investment documents before accepting.
Tips
- Read the cited current official page before applying because program dates and terms are volatile.
- State fit with the documented stage, geography, and attendance model; do not rely on an aggregator's old terms.
- Ask for the complete investment, fee, and follow-on documents when the public page does not publish them.
Watch out for

Track record
