To put it short, yes, you do get a stipend at the PEC Chandigarh University, but it depends on certain terms and conditions.

Getting an SGPA of at least 6.5 in the semesters is the most important condition. If it is less than required in any semester, your next stipend will not come for the next adjacent half. If you fail to do so in the 1st semester, the stipend for the second semester would be lost.
If you score SGPA more than 6.5 in the second sem, the stipend of third and fourth in the second semester combined will re-continue.
And if you fail to reach 6.5 in the second sem, the stipend of the third and fourth sem will discontinue. As there are no separate examinations for the 3rd and 4th sem to judge the eligibility of stipend.

The stipend for the first semester is received by the students without any conditions, so you need not worry about this, as this depends on your GATE score.
