refer to clarification 7 of section 10(16). it is reproduced below:-

 

RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS IN ENGINEERING, TECHNOLOGY, HUMANITIES AND SCIENCE SUBJECTS - The research fellowships in engineering technology, humanities and science subjects given by University Grants Commission will be exempt under section 10(16). The contingent grant of Rs. 1,000 per year to meet petty expenses will also be exempt under section 10(14) of the Income-tax Act, 1961.
