10. EVALUATION
The evaluation of students in a course from third semester & onwards will be based on the
performance of the student in the internal assessment (IA) and end-term examination (ETE). IA
will be an ongoing process during the semester and will consist of various components as detailed
below. There shall be End-term examinations (Theory as well as practical and sessional) at the end
of each semester. In Lecture-based courses, the allocation of marks will be as follows:- 30 percent
for IA and 70 percent for the ETE of the maximum marks specified for the course. For Laboratory-
based courses, the marks will be equally distributed, with 50 percent for IA and 50 percent for the
ETE of the maximum marks specified for that course. The internal assessment (IA) marks for the
lecture-based course will consist of the following components:-
(i) Maximum 10% marks of the total marks specified for the course, each for Mid-Term I and
Mid-Term II. Mid-Term examination will be held as per the schedule specified in the academic
calendar. Answer copies of the Mid-Term examination will be shown to the students within 15
days after completion of the corresponding Mid-Term examination.
(ii) Remaining 10% marks of the total marks specified for the course to be awarded by the course
instructor based on the attendance of the student and performance of the student in quizzes,
tutorials, assignments, etc. The weightage of each of the above will be decided by the course
instructor and will be notified to the students at the beginning of the course.
Explanation:- If the total marks specified for the course is 100 then 30 marks will be for IA &
70 marks will be for ETE. Out of 30 marks of IA, maximum of 10 marks will be there for each
mid-term examination and the remaining 10 marks will be as per (ii) above.
In case of unforeseen illness or any other valid reason that has prevented a student from
appearing in any of the midterm exams, the concerned instructor, after informing the Head of the
Department, may conduct a special midterm examination. The internal assessment for Laboratory-
based courses will encompass attendance, fieldwork, practical work, viva-voce examination, and
similar components. There will be only end term examination (ETE) for B.E. first year.
The end-term examination will be held as per the schedule notified by the office of controller

11. CRITERIA TO PASS AND ALLOWED TO KEEP TERM (ATKT)

aggregate marks of IA and ETE of that course) in each lecture-

(awarded based on aggregate marks of IA and ETE of that course) in each laboratory-based course
of that semester. Furthermore, a candidate should obtain a SGPA (Semester Grade Point Average)
of at least 5.0 in that semester. After passing a particular semester the candidate will be allowed to
study as a regular candidate in the next higher semester as per conditions 10.1 to 10.4. Each course
(either Lecture-based or Laboratory-based) hereinafter for this section will be referred to as a unit.
Furthermore, in certain cases even if a candidate has failed in one or more units the candidate will
be allowed to study as a regular candidate in the next higher semester. This condition of allowing
a candidate to pursue regular studies in next higher semester even if the candidate has not passed
in previous semester is termed as allowed to keep term (ATKT). The conditions to be followed for
ATKT are as follows:-
(a) To pass in any lecture-based course a candidate must obtain at least 30% of the maximum
marks allocated for internal assessment (IA) and at least 35% of the total marks (IA & ETE)
prescribed for that course. Furthermore, if a candidate fails to secure at least 30% of the
maximum marks of internal assessment (IA) in a particular course the candidate will be
treated as failed in that course even if the candidate has secured 35% or more of the total
marks (sum of IA & ETE marks) prescribed for that course.
(b) If a candidate fails in not more than 3 units in a semester examination, he/she shall be allowed
to keep term (ATKT) i.e., the candidate will be allowed to study as a regular candidate in the
next higher semester and for passing that semester he/she has to complete all the formalities

10
 of that semester. However, additionally he/ she shall have to reappear in the end-term
examination of those units (s) that the candidate could not pass earlier along with other regular
candidates whenever the examination of that semester is held and has to pass in the unit (s)
in which he/she had failed. For the purpose of this clause, each lecture-based course and each
laboratory-based course shall be counted as a separate unit. Furthermore, the internal
assessment marks obtained by him/her shall be carried over. If any student wants to improve
his/her marks in IA in which the candidate had failed earlier then that candidate will be
required to complete all the formalities of IA of that course such as appearing in midterm
examination, submitting the assignments, performing the laboratory experiments etc. as the
case may be after paying the stipulated fees and after registration in that course whenever
next that course is available for registration.
(c) HUMANITIES & ENGLISH shall not be counted as a unit while applying (a) above. In other
words, as a special criterion, a candidate shall be allowed to keep term even though he/she
has failed in HUMANITIES & ENGLISH in addition to up to another three units.
(d) Suppose a candidate fails in more than three units (theory & practical) of the prescribed
courses for him/her in that semester or does not secure the prescribed minimum SGPA in that
semester. In that case, he/she shall not be permitted to continue his/her studies in the next
higher semester and shall be treated as an Ex-student. He/she has to reappear in all the courses
of that semester whenever the examination of that semester is held. All the marks obtained
earlier in internal assessment shall be carried over. If any student wants to improve his/her
marks in IA in one or more courses then that candidate will be required to complete all the
formalities of IA of that course such as appearing in midterm examination, submitting the
assignments, performing the laboratory experiments, etc. as the case may be after paying the
stipulated fees and after registration in that course whenever next that course(s) is(are)
available for registration.
(e) A candidate who has passed all laboratory-based courses of a particular semester but has
failed in more than three lecture-based courses of that semester shall be required to reappear
only in the end-term examination of all lecture-based courses of that semester examination as
Ex-student whenever the examination of that semester is held. All the marks obtained earlier
by the candidate in the laboratory-based courses (i.e., internal assessment plus the end-term
marks) shall be carried over. Also, the marks obtained earlier in the internal assessment of
the lecture-based courses shall be carried over. If any student wants to improve his/her marks
in IA in one or more lecture-based courses then that candidate will be required to complete
all the formalities of IA of that course such as appearing in midterm examination, submitting
the assignments, etc., after registration in that course whenever next that course(s) is(are)
available for registration.
(f) For passing a laboratory-based course there is an additional requirement that a candidate must
obtain at least 50% marks in internal assessment of that course, failing which the candidate
shall not be permitted to appear in end-term examination (ETE) of that course in that
semester. For such cases, a candidate will be declared failed in that course. Those candidates
who have failed in a course have to join as a regular student in that course whenever it is
offered next by the department based on the availability of resources and suitability of the
candidate. The Head of the Department may organize and arrange special classes for the
particular subject to minimize the loss to the student who fails in VIII semester. In case the

11
 course is discontinued in the department, the student can take up another course in lieu of the
course discontinued, subject to approval of the Head of the Department.
(g) A candidate who fails in any elective subject may be permitted by the Head of the Department
to change the elective subject in a subsequent semester. He/she shall be required to undergo
a regular course of study for the new elective subject.
(h) The candidates who are permitted to appear as ex-students shall be required to pay a
prescribed fee as amended from time to time for doing each practical and sessional during the
semester.
(i) A candidate who is unable to appear at the end-term examination in some/all lecture-based
or Laboratory-based courses due to any reason whatsoever, shall be considered as having
failed in those courses.

A candidate, promoted to II year B.E., may be permitted to change his/her branch of study,
from GAS course to GAS Course and from SFS Course to SFS Course only, strictly on the base of
merit secured in B.E. I year examination (First and Second Semester Examination taken together)
depending upon the vacancies available in a particular branch of study which shall be determined
as follows:-

sanctioned strength and the minimum strength of a branch should not be decreased to less than 90

The sanctioned strength of a branch shall be reckoned to be the intake capacity of that branch,
approved by AICTE.
14. RESULT COMPUTATION (Award of Grade and Grade Point Average)
(a) On the basis of the percentage of obtained marks the process of result computation will be as
follows, and followings will be awarded:-
For every subject: Grade and Score Point
For every semester: Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) up to a precision of two digits after the
decimal.
For every semester: Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) up to the current semester, up to a
precision of two digits after the decimal.
Step 1:- For each subject the percentage of obtained marks will be converted into Grade as per
Table I.

X 0 Debarred
AB 0 Absent
Step 3:- Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) of kth semester is:-

Where Pi is Score Points in ith subject, Ci is Credits of ith subject, and n is total number of subjects
in current kth semester
Step 4:- Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of kth semester is

Where Sj is SGPA of jth semester, Cj is total Credits in jth semester, and m is total number of
semesters upto current kth semester.
(b) For determining merit position of the candidates at the final year level the SGPA obtained by
them in III semester to VIII semester shall only be considered, termed as MGPA (Merit Grade
Point Average). MGPA shall be calculated as below:-

Where Si is SGPA of ith semester, Ci is total Credits in ith semester.

(c) In case a candidate passes any subject in 2nd attempt or later one, the grade awarded shall not
be higher than B+ in that subject.
(d) Awarded SGPA and CGPA shall be recalculated if a candidate passes a subject or all subjects
of any semester in 2nd or later attempt.
(e) To calculate SGPA and CGPA, obtained marks for all subjects shall be considered irrespective
of whether it is F grade (Failed or Absent) or any other grade.

13
15. CONVERSION OF GRADES
Whenever it is expedient to convert the SGPA/CGPA into percentage of marks the following
formulas to be used:-
Equivalent % of marks from SGPA = (SGPA 0.5) x 10
Equivalent % of marks from CGPA = (CGPA 0.5) x 10
A candidate will be awarded the degree with first division if he/she secures 60% or more by
converting the overall CGPA obtained at the end of VIII semester into percentage using the above

 10. After the conduct of the examination and completion of evaluation process the Departmental
Coordinator will collect the details of grades obtained by each student along with a copy of
their certificates. Based on these details each department will prepare a consolidated list
(subject-wise/course-wise) of the obtained grades by the students along with their names. The
HODs will then send the same to the office of controller of examination of the University for
mobility of the grades.
11. In case of the difficulty the Department SWAYAM coordinator can contact the University
Coordinator for SWAYAM. For this purpose, University will appoint a University
SWAYAM coordinator who shall act as a single point of contact (SPOC) at the University
level. University SWAYAM coordinator shall act as a single point of contact and shall work
as an interface between colleges, departments, and UGC.
12. A student cannot request for transfer of credits for any course not approved by the
Departmental council of the concerned Department.
