In 2019-20, to increase accessibility to students and extend the reach, the preliminary rounds of the quiz were made online and was also extended to all the southern states of India. After two preliminary rounds top 20 students were invited to Hyderabad for finals.

Top three students are presented with cash awards and Annual Science awards. The award carries a cash prize of Rs. 5000/- and a trophy to the winner, Rs. 4000/- and Rs. 3000/= and a trophy to the first runner up and second runner up respectively.

The students selected for the finals get an opportunity to visit research institutions and interact with scientists. Scientific talks are arranged for these students and one round in the finals is based on these talks. Unique rounds are conducted to involve students in knowledge sharing.
