The system of evaluation of answer scripts for theory courses is “Double Valuation” i.e.,

valuation by two examiners independently. Since the answer scripts are subject to double

valuation, there is no provision for revaluation. Even after a double valuation, candidates are

given the right to challenge the valuation. Challenging the valuation is permitted for those

students who have applied for photocopy of answer script. A candidate can apply for

challenge valuation in a theory course, within 2 weeks from the declaration of results, on

payment of a prescribed fee along with prescribed application to the Controller of

Examinations (COE) through the Heads of Departments.

Copies of answer scripts for theory courses can be obtained from the Office of the Controller

of Examinations on payment of a prescribed fee specified for this purpose through proper

application. The copy of answer script is to be valued by a competent authority and the valued

script should be submitted to Controller of Examination’s (COE’s) office along with the

prescribed fee for challenging the valuation. The COE will arrange for the challenge valuation

and the publications of the results.

Challenging is not permitted for Practical Courses, Mini projects, Seminar and for Project

work.

15 SGPA AND CGPA CALCULATION

After the results are declared, Grade Sheets will be issued to each student which will contain the

following details:

The list of courses enrolled during the semester and the grades scored.

The Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) and

The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of all courses enrolled from first semester (third

semester in case of LES) onwards.

During each semester, the list of courses enrolled and the grades scored in each course are used to

compute the Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA). SGPA is the ratio of the sum of the products of

the number of credits of courses registered and the grade points corresponding to the grades scored in

those courses, taken for all the courses, to the sum of the number of credits of all the courses in the

semester.
