10. Grading System


A Seven pointer – scale letter grade system will be used to assess the performance of
candidates in the various categories (course, project, etc.).
In addition, there shall be two transitional symbols used by Examiners –
I - for 'Incomplete assessment' (Details under section 13)
X - for ‗Debarred‘ (Details under section 14)
These are shown below:
Performance Letter – grade Grade point per credit(gi)
Excellent A+ 10
Very good A 9
Good B 8
Fair C 7
Average D 6
Pass P 5
Fail F 0
Incomplete I 0
Debarred X 0
A Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) will be computed for each semester to work out the
overall performance of a candidate in that semester. The SGPA will be calculated as follows:
n n
SGPA =  ci g i
i 1
c
i 1
i

Where: n is the number of courses registered for during the semester


ci is the number of Credits allotted to a particular course, and
gi is the grade of points corresponding to the grade awarded for the course.
A Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) will be computed at the end of the Second and the
Project semesters.
m m
CGPA =  ci g i
i 1
c
i 1
i

The CGPA gives the cumulative performance of the candidates from the first semester up to the
end of the semester to which it refers, and will be calculated as follows:
Where 'm' is total number of courses registered for semester 1 onwards up to the current semester.
Both CGPA and SGPA will be rounded off to the second place of decimal and recorded as such,
whenever these Grade Point Averages are to be used for the purpose of determining the inter se
merit ranking of a grade of candidate, only the rounded off values will be taken into account.
When a candidate get grade ―I‖ or grade ―X‖ for any subject(s) during a semester, the SGPA for
that semester and the CGPA will be tentatively calculated ignoring this course. After the ―I‖ or ―X‖
grade has been replaced by a completed grade, the SGPA for that semester and the CGPA will
finally be recalculated taking into account the performance in the course(s) concerned.

Annexure of SNT 22.4 (e)

When a candidate gets grade ―F‖ for any course(s) during the semester, the SGPA and CGPA from
that semester onwards will be tentatively calculated, taking only ‗2 points‘ for each such grade
during that semester. After the F grade(s) has been substituted by a higher grade in the Special
examination or in a subsequent semester, the SGPA and CGPA of all the semesters, onwards from
the semesters in which ‗F‘ grade was obtained earlier, will be suitably modified to take this change
of grade into account.

PG Programme Course Credit based on L-T-P


Credit in any Semester is based on Lecture, Tutorial and Practical (L – T – P) hours assigned for the
course, as indicated in column 1, 2 and 3 of the Table below.
Lecture/ Tutorial: One hour per week in a semester will be equivalent to one credit.
Practice: Three hours per week in a semester will be equivalent to one credits.
Credit of a course offered in a Semester: Cr = L + T + (P x 0.67) #
(# UG Programme - New Course Structure - course credit i.e. Cr = L + T + (P x 0.33) is different than that of above)
Credit of any course will be an integer number. If Credit calculated as stated above has any fractional
part that needs to be rounded off to an integer number. In case the course credit is a fractional number
greater than or equal to 0.5, then it should be rounded up to next higher integer. If fractional part is less
than 0.5 then should be ignored.

APPENDIX - VI
Guidelines for Award of Letter Grade
In general there shall be no rigid marks - to - grade linkage. Difficulty levels of the examinations, tests,
assignments, viva-voce and other factors that contributed to the final marks are to be considered by the
teacher/co-ordination committee of a course while converting marks into letter grades.
1. In general there shall be no rigid marks - to - grade linkage. Difficulty levels of the examinations, tests,
assignments, viva-voce and other factors that contributed to the final marks are to be considered by the
teacher/co-ordination committee of a course while converting marks into letter grades.
2. a) The grades ‗F‘ and ‗A+‘ are to be considered as bench mark grades.
b) For courses which have a laboratory component (P-component), to secure any grade higher than
'F' a candidate has to achieve individually more than the cut-off marks in both the theory
component and the laboratory component. Otherwise, he/she has to achieve higher than the cut-off
marks in the theory component alone.
c) The range of cut-off marks below which a candidate would be assigned 'F' grade is 33% for the
theory component and 33% for the laboratory component, the exact cut-off marks is to be decided
by the teacher/co-ordination committee.
d) The exceptionally brilliant performance is to be assigned an 'A+' grade. Even the best candidate of
any class needs to be good enough to be awarded the 'A+' grade.
3. In the case of a relatively large class and/or classes where the performance level depicts more or less
a normal distribution:
a) The average performance (around mean value of marks) is to be assigned 'C' grade. However, if by
teacher's/co-ordination committee's perception the general level of the class is considered to be
appreciably high, the average performance may be assigned 'B' grade.
b) All other marks to grade conversion are to be done relatively with respect to the average
performance in between (but excluding) the F and A+ grades, which have already been assigned,
by choosing appropriate boundary marks between grades.
c) Normally, in a reasonably large class of candidates distribution of grades is expected to be as
follows
A+ : < = 10 %
A : 10 – 20 %
B, C, D : 20 – 35%
P : 10 – 26%
F : < = 5%
4. In the case where a candidate appears in the special examination, the conversion from marks to grade
would be done applying the same norm as was framed for the original class.
