When I was doing my Master's in Chemical Engineering, out of 8 of us just 2 scored 60% and above in the 1st Semester. Those scoring below 60% had their stipend cut from Rs. 1800 to Rs. 1000/month. Once a group of our class who were getting 1000 Rs/month were leaving for home at 6 pm. A PhD student promptly asked "Why are you leaving so early?" my friend A P Nayak replied "Hazar Rupiah Mein Aur Kitna Karega!" ("How much can you do for a 1000 Rupees"!)
