admission may be allowed for submission of draft spiral bound copy of dissertation for
medical/other genuine reasons. However, the student shall pay prescribed late
submission fee in addition the fee paid towards examination. If it is not possible to
complete the dissertation work within the allowed extension of one month, the student
shall register by paying the prescribed fee for the next semester to complete the work.
9.20 A common rubric shall be developed to assess seminar and dissertation for each
programme. The rubric for the laboratory course shall be developed by the concerned

10.1 Students shall be assigned a grade based on combined (ISE+ESE) and ESE performance
in all components of evaluation/examination scheme of a course as per the structure.
The grade indicates an assessment of the student’s performance and shall be associated
with equivalent number called a ‘grade point’. The performance of the student as per
the grade point on a 0-10 scale shall further fall into a letter grading system as shown in
Table 10.1.
An ‘AA’ grade stands for outstanding achievement relative to the class. The CC’ grade
stands for average performance and it refers to ‘average’ as per course teacher’s
expectations in a holistic sense and is not based on the class average. The ‘DD’ grade
stands for marginal performance and is the minimum passing grade. The ‘FF’ grade
denotes poor performance. A student who obtains FF grade in any course shall either
appear for make-up examination or re-register for the course/s, till a passing grade is
obtained.
A student who obtains ‘XX1/XX2’ grade in any course has to necessarily re-register
for the course in the subsequent semesters until a passing grade is obtained. Such
students shall not be allowed to appear for makeup examination.

shall not be rounded. The total of ISE 1, ISE 2, MSE and ESE will be computed and
rounded to the nearest higher integer.
10.4 A student will be given maximum of two grace marks per course to obtain passing
grade in maximum of two courses provided he/she has passed in all other courses for
that semester. If a student has failed in more than two courses, no grace marks will be

40% marks in ESE. XX1 grade shall be assigned in a laboratory course to a student
obtaining less than 40% marks in ISE.
10.8 In the further grading process, the failed students shall be excluded.
10.9 Then, the mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ) of total marks of passed students shall
be computed. From these, the relative grading thresholds shall be decided with the use
of Tables 10.2 and 10.3 for theory and lab./ proj./ mini-proj /seminar respectively.
10.10 After the relative grade thresholds are calculated, the faculty shall check the histogram
of the grades and adjust the thresholds to get nearly bell shaped histogram.
10.11 After this the faculty shall get the grade thresholds, approved from GMC. After
approval, the faculty shall lock the grade thresholds.
10.12 The faculty then shall review the boundary cases for each grade and may assign max
+1 grace (ISE) mark to those boundary cases. This shall not change the grade
boundaries.
10.13 The grades shall be calculated as per the Tables 10.2 and 10.3 and assigned to each
student.
10.14 The faculty shall prepare the grade sheet, verify it, sign on it, get the signature of the

faculty, verify them, and approve it and display the class wise provisional result on
the departmental notice board.
10.16 Absolute grading is applicable to courses where the number of students registered for
a course is less than 15. Allocation of grace marks shall be same as mentioned in 10.6.
The thresholds for absolute grading are given in Tables 10.4 and 10.5.
CPI shall be calculated as per absolute grading system for the students switched over
from university pattern to autonomous pattern.
i. There shall be a makeup examination for all courses (theory and laboratory)
once in a year. The makeup examination for an academic year shall be
conducted before the commencement of an odd semester of the next academic
year.
iv. If a student applies for appearing for such makeup examination for a theory
course, the MSE, ISE 1 and ISE 2 marks of the course shall be null and void.
Also grade obtained in the course during regular odd or even semester
examination shall be null and void.
v. The makeup examination for a theory course shall be of 100 marks and based
on all modules in the syllabus with equal weightage to each module. The
question paper shall not have any options (no internal options also).
vii. For makeup examination absolute grading shall be used and Table 10.4 shall
be applied for deciding grades.
x. If the student fails to clear the course, even in make-up examination, he/she
has to re-register for the course whenever it is offered and undergo all the
modes of evaluations afresh.
xi. There shall not be any other re-examination for makeup examination for what
so ever reason.
10.18 Revaluation
10.19 The grade “PP” (Passed)/ “NP” (Not Passed) shall be awarded for audit courses
depending upon the performance of a student evaluated by the faculty in-charge. No
grade points shall be associated with these grades and performance in these courses
shall be not taken into account in the calculation of the performance indices (SPI,
CPI). However, the award of the degree shall be subject to obtaining a “PP” grade in
all such courses.
i. A student in second year and student who has passed M. Tech. shall be
permitted to apply for CPI improvement provided his/her CPI is less than 6.50
(for students admitted before 2014-15)/6.75 (for students admitted after 2014-

iv) The participation by a student at state/national level and bringing credit to institute is to be
considered for exemption/excuse from attendance during the period of the concerned activity.
The exemption/excuse is to be considered by assigning the same grade to exemption/excuse
as that of present (Normally one grade) in moodle setting for attendance record.
9.14 The achievement by a student at state/national level and bringing credit to institute is to
be considered for exemption from MSE. The performance in ESE by such student will be
enhanced by 1.6 factor to compensate for exemption of MSE. However, such student should
get minimum of 40% marks in ESE. In case ESE is missed, such student should appear for
make-up examination. No remarks will be indicated in grade card.
10.22 (UG) and 10.24 (PG)
The rules for giving extra 3% marks (E3M) for Specially Abled students (SAS)
a. The E3M for SAS shall be given only for the first attempt.
b. The E3M shall not be applicable to SAS appearing for makeup examinations.
However, if such a student, due to valid reasons, does not appear for any of the
evaluation in all the courses during the regular semester and if he is permitted
to appear in all the courses of the concerned semester during the makeup
examination of that year, in such a case E3M shall be a valid claim to the
concerned SAS.
c. The total of maximum marks of the semester, for which the SAS is appearing,
shall be computed based on the current academic structure in force and
excluding the backlog (re-registered) courses.
d. The courses, in which SAS has failed, shall be arranged in descending order
based on the scored marks (The course with least marks required for passing
will be first and so on).
e. Accordingly, the 3% marks shall be computed and distributed among the
courses of above two groups so as to give marks required for passing subject
to the condition that, the total extra marks shall not exceed 3% of the
concerned semester total.
f. While giving extra marks, first the required marks shall be given to enable the
student to pass ESE and then (if needed), the required marks for passing the
course shall be given. However he/she shall be pass with passing grade “DD”.
g. To be eligible for these benefits, SAS must have appeared all components of
evaluations for the course.
h. The course/s, for which SAS has availed this benefit, shall be indicated with (£
pound symbol) and mention of the GR will be made on the grade card.
