This is not like an International certification. This is just an online training or you may say coaching that can be your first step in Open Source, online communication and Linux OS. It is like a java course you do at NIIT, difference is its for free and online. More over it inolves an open source project also. so you have a chance to be involved in a real life project. 

Will there be any examination also and how much duration will it be ?

There wont be any examination. You have to join their mailing list, leave a mail there that you are interested, figure out what is IRC chats and how to be there and then regularly attend the classes. This program is conducted by Red Hat proffesionals, the engineers in it and the head of Red Hat , India are always there in the IRC sessions. So if you show good progress you might get a chance to intern with Red Hat(like the few last time)

This program will start in june and will end by the summer vacation. Please refer the wiki page of dgplug mentioned in previous post. for further details.

How this will be utilized in future,what all benfits one wud get in
future ... ??

You 'll get to learn new things, If you are planning for GSoC next year this can be the first step towards it. It has nothing to do with GSoC.

Is this same what the "GOOGLE SUMMER OF CODE " is or that is a
different program to enroll in ??

this training and GSoC have only one thing in common "Open Source"
