No, NPTEL does not offer certificates for free courses.While the course content itself is completely free to access and learn from, obtaining a verified certificate requires passing a proctored exam. There's a nominal fee of Rs. 1000/- for this exam.   So, while you can learn for free, you'll need to pay a fee to get a formal certification.

NPTEL courses themselves are completely free to enroll in and learn from. You can access video lectures, study materials, and assignments without any cost.   However, if you want to obtain a verified certificate for completing a course, you need to appear for a proctored exam. There is a nominal fee of Rs. 1000/- per course for this exam.   So, while learning is free, certification comes with a small fee.
