Schengen Visa for Germany refused due to lack of subsistence

As an exchange student my guess is that accommodation is taken care of and perhaps even food? If so, did you file letters from the host stating so? If not then it's understandable that the authorities doubt that less than 25 EUR a day is enough. So: re-apply with the host stating these two are taken care of.

Unfortunately, your chances of getting a visa do not look very good. The reference amount for Germany is €45 per day. For 89 days, it's more than €4000. That's without counting the price of the flight. It does not even matter whether you could actually get by on less than that.
Beyond that, you also need to show you have a stable situation in India, which is why a work contract/pay stubs/past bank statements showing a regular income would help a lot, even if you had enough cash on hand.
Right now, you can either appeal the decision (more complex but in principle free) or reapply (which means paying €60 again, with no guarantees) but you need to submit additional documentation in any case to have any chance of success and if you only have €2000, you won't get a visa for 89 days. Alternatively, you could try to go for a shorter stay in Germany (although I would expect any new application to receive an additional amount of scrutiny, now that you have had one refusal).
