Post-study work rights depend on the graduate’s country of citizenship and the immigration rules in place at the time of graduation. For graduates of programmes in India, work authorization is typically handled through the appropriate visa/work permit category rather than an automatic post-study permit.

• Eligibility: You generally need to secure a qualifying job offer or meet the requirements of the relevant work-authorization route.
• Duration: The length of stay/work authorization is determined by the visa/work permit category and the approval granted by immigration authorities.
• Key conditions: Maintain valid immigration status, comply with reporting/renewal requirements, and ensure your employment aligns with the approved purpose of stay.
• Country-specific rules: Immigration policies can change. Always verify the latest requirements with official government sources or your university’s international office.

For the most accurate guidance for your situation, check the current rules applicable to your nationality and the specific visa/work permit category you plan to apply for.
