What is PM Internship Scheme 2025?
The PM Internship Scheme is an initiative by the government of India that is specifically designed to provide credible internship opportunities to young individuals, providing them industry exposure. The scheme offers 12‑month internships in the top 500 companies of India, facilitating youth aged between 21 and 24 from low‑income households.
These internships span 24 sectors, including oil, gas, energy, travel, hospitality, automotive, banking and financial services. Companies participating in this pilot were selected based on their corporate social responsibility (CSR) spending over the last three years, ensuring participants are placed with socially and ethically responsible organisations.

As part of the PM Internship Scheme 2025, each selected intern will receive a monthly financial assistance of Rs 5,000.
