Yes if its the Requirement of University in which you are applying .
IN UK almost every university demands for Ielts .. So i think Ielts is must.Do let me know if you find any university without Ielts ..

what is the procedure to apply for this scholarship? is it through any agency in pakistan or applicant's should apply independently for university first and then apply for the scholarship????

I have applied for this scholarship. I applied in almost 10 universities and out of them 4 sent me an offer letter for admission. But i haven't got any information about the scholarship. If anyone of you has any information regarding this, pease share it. when will they shortlist the scholarship holders?

How did you applied for it can you tel me the procedure ???

The link shared by one of our fellow members in the start of this thread will take you to the website of commonwealth shared scholarships. the prospectus is available on the website listing the universities that are offering this scholarship. each university is offering some specific courses for scholarship. Select one university from the propectus and see if it is offering the subject you wish to study, go to the university's website(given in the prospectus) and apply for that program. Each university has its own application system. fill out the application, give your details and scanned copies of all the required documents. the university will inform you about your admission via email and courier. once you are done with this, make an account on commonwealth scholarship and apply for scholarship to the universities which offer you the admission.

is it necessary to provide score of IELTS at this point in time. do we have option to show them our medium of instruction in the last degree completed and then provide them with our IELTS score at some another stage??

Yes, you can do so. but then they consider you for conditional admission offer. I have not taken IELTS yet.
