Scholarships for a candidate with 87.6% in 10th CBSE.

Scholarships are only given to those candidates who have scored, first, second or third position in your region. Percentage is no bar, no matter what percentage you have scored, you need to be in the top three students to get the scholarship for CBSE Board.

There are a lot of public and private scholarships available for post metric stdents . Three important criteria can be
1. Your 10th score
2. Your family income
3. Your caste category

2 of the most reliable scholarships by government of india are-
1.scholarship under mhrd
2.scholarship under department of minority affairs.

You can also apply to scholarships provided by your native state government simultaneously.

If you belong from the General or Unreserved category then I fear that there wont be any scholarship for you.

if you are from SC/ST community then you might have a chance.

You can inquire in your school about the same as you have not mentioned your category, state etc here.
