It's taxable unless there is specific exemption u/s 10. And I thing there are no exemption u/s 10 related to it.... So it is taxable..... Let's see what is the opinion of others.

Article stipend is not taxable... There is a case law in this regard.. The stand in the case law is that the article is helping his principal in carrying out his work and acquiring knowledge.

Hello, i agree and the case is very old.. IF you recevie the stipend like what u get in BIG4 than its a good amount and certainly income will increase the maximum limit.
for the other question i will like to say that it will be taxable under the head Salaries, only.....
And for NITIN- it will be taxable under the head of salary only as it is in the form of salary( stipend)....
