Executed through its implementing partner, CRSL, GAIL’s Utkarsh Super 100 provides intensive residential coaching and mentoring to students from economically weaker backgrounds, for a period of 1 year. The training is offered free-of-cost to ensure that poor, meritorious students, selected through a diligent process of written test and interview under the academic guidance of Shri Abhayanand (IPS retd.), Ex-DGP, Bihar and Co-founder of Super 30, Patna, benefit from the initiative.

Launched in 2009, GAIL’s Utkarsh Super 100 has successfully nurtured and transformed the lives of 414 students and by extension, their families, helping them secure admission in reputed engineering institutions.

Having completed their studies, most of them are now placed in reputed organisations and are a part of the India growth story.

With a success rate of over 87%, GAIL Utkarsh Super 100 is delivering excellent result year after year and intends to continue nurturing talent from the weaker sections of the society, bringing them into the mainstream narrative.
