- Which hackathons in India have the biggest prize pools?
- 6 of the 8 listed hackathons publish a prize pool, the largest ₹1.5L. 1 of those is quoted in a currency other than the rupee; the card shows the organizer's own figure and the rupee value is only used to sort them into prize bands.

- 0 of the 8 run online and can be entered from anywhere in India; 8 need you on site, most often in Mohali (1), Pune (1) and KSR Kalvi Nagar (1). 7 say in their own description that students may enter.
- How do I register for a hackathon listed here?
- Every listing here links back to the organizer's registration page — AllEvents, Devfolio, Devpost, HackerEarth, Luma, MLH and Unstop — and registration happens there, not on Jamao. Nothing is behind a login and no listing is paid placement. Running one? Claim your listing from its page, or add it free at jamao.in/create, and it stops being overwritten by the import.
