As per the UGC-DEB Public Notice dated 19th August 2024, it is now mandatory for every learner (except international learners) to generate a DEB-ID using their ABC ID before enrolling in any Open and Distance Learning (ODL) or Online (OL) Programmes.

How to generate a DEB-ID?

Go to the UGC-DEB web portal https://deb.ugc.ac.in/StudentDeBID and generate DEB-ID using your Academic Bank of Credit (ABC) ID.
If you do not have an Academic Bank of Credit (ABC) ID, you can create one through DigiLocker https://www.digilocker.gov.in The DEB-ID, once generated, will remain valid for the student’s lifetime.
Note: Without a valid DEB-ID, admission cannot be granted to ODL/ OL Programmes.
