(b), out of which the student has to answer either (a) or (b), not both. Each question carries
5 marks for a total duration of 2 hours. The total marks secured by the student in each mid-
term examination are evaluated for 25 marks, and the average of the two mid-term
examinations shall be taken as the final marks secured by each candidate.
However, any student scoring internal marks less than 40% will be given a chance to write
the internal exam once again after he/she re-registering for the concerned subject and
paying stipulated fees as per the norms.
5.1 The end semesters examination will be conducted for 75 marks with 5 questions
consisting of two questions each (a) and (b), out of which the student has to answer
either (a) or (b), not both and each question carries 15 marks.
5.2 For practical subjects, 75 marks shall be awarded based on the performance in the
End Semester Examinations and 2 5 marks shall be awarded based on the day-to-
day performance as Internal Marks.
5.3 There shall be two seminar presentations during I year I semester and II semester
respectively. For seminar, a student under the supervision of a faculty member,
shall collect the literature on a topic and critically review the literature and submit
it to the department in a report form and shall make an oral presentation before
the Departmental Academic Committee consisting of Head of the Department,
Supervisor and two other senior faculty members of the department. For each
Seminar there will be only internal evaluation of 50 marks. A candidate has to
secure a minimum of 50% of marks to be declared successful.
5.4 A candidate shall be deemed to have secured the minimum academic requirement in

subject (as specified in 5.4) he has to reappear for the End semester
Examination in that subject.
5.6 A candidate shall be given one chance to re-register for each subject provided the
internal marks secured by a candidate are less than 50% and so has failed in the
end examination. In such a case, the candidate must re-register for the
subject(s) and secure the required minimum attendance. The candidate’s
attendance in the re-registered subject(s) shall be calculated separately to decide
upon his eligibility for writing the end examination in those subject(s). In the event
of the student taking another chance, his internal marks and end examination
marks obtained in the previous attempt stand cancelled.

is implemented in awarding the grades and CGPA under the Credit Based Semester System
(CBCS).
Letter Grades and Grade Points:
The UGC recommends a 10-point grading system with the following letter grades as given
below:
Grades Points Marks secured
(%)
O (Outstanding) 10 ≥ 85
A+(Excellent) 9 80 – 84
A(Very Good) 8 75 – 79
B+(Good) 7 70 – 74
B(Above Average) 6 65 – 69
C(Average) 5 60 – 64
P(Pass) 4 50 – 59
F(Fail) 0 <50
Ab(Absent) 0 -
A student obtaining Grade F shall be considered failed and will be required to reappear in
the examination
Computation of SGPA and CGPA
The UGC recommends the following procedure to compute the Semester Grade Point
Average (SGPA) and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA):
i. The SGPA is the ratio of sum of the product of the number of credits with the grade points
scored by a student in all the courses taken by a student and the sum of the number of
credits of all the courses undergone by a student, i.e
SGPA (Si) = Σ(Ci x Gi) / ΣCi
where Ci is the number of credits of the ith course and Gi is the grade point scored by the
student in the ith course.
ii. The CGPA is also calculated in the same manner taking into account all the courses
undergone by a student over all the semesters of a programme, i.e.
CGPA = Σ(Ci x Si) / Σ Ci
where Si is the SGPA of the ith semester and Ci is the total number of credits in that
semester.
iii. The SGPA and CGPA shall be rounded off to 2 decimal points and reported in the
transcripts.
If the student has not paid the dues, if any, to the Institute or if any case of indiscipline
is pending against him, the result of the student will be withheld and he will not be
allowed into the next semester. His degree will be withheld in such cases.
10. GENERAL
10.1 Wherever the words he, him, his, occur in the regulations, they include she, her,
hers .
10.2 The academic regulation should be read as a whole for the purpose of any
interpretation.
10.3 In case of any doubt or ambiguity in the interpretation of the above rules, the
decision of the Academic Council of the College is final.
10.4 The College may change or amend the academic regulations or syllabi at any
time and the changes or amendments made shall be applicable to all the
students with effect from the dates notified by the Academic Council of the
College/Affiliating University.
