Fair D 5 40-44 Fail F 0 Less than 40 To judge the overall performance one considers cumulative Grade Point Average as the criterion. CGPA Calculation is as illustrated below: CGPA Calculation System SGPA: Semester grade point average CGPA: Cumulative grade point average Point: (a) Integer average of each letter grade Credit: (b) Integer signifying the relative emphasis of Individual Course item(s) in a semester as indicated by the course structure and syllabus. Credit Point: (b) times (a) for each course item Credit Index: CREDIT POINT of course items in semester GRADE POINT: CREDIT INDEX divided by CREDITS AVERAGE SGPA: CREDIT INDEX for a semester divided by CREDITS in a Semester CGPA: CREDIT INDEX of all previous semesters divided by CREDITS of all previous semesters. i) For the purpose of Passing in individual papers, the student must secure at least 40 % in University term examination and at least D grade (40%) on the basis of total marks obtained in Internal and External examinations of individual papers. Student must appear in all examinations. ii) A student who passes the minor tests ( 40%) but fails in Term End Examination i.e. (< 40%) the student shall be given F grade. Student with F grade in a course would be granted credit for that course but not the grade for that course and shall have to clear the concerned course within 1.5 year from appearing for first time in the concerned paper. However M. Tech. Course must completed within four years period of time. iii) For improvement of the grade s student can opt more electives iv) The Student will not be allowed to submit his/ her Major Project Thesis unless he clears all previous Semester Examinations i.e. grades better than D. 7. Final Result: For the final result of a student, Cumulative grade point average (CGPA) based on total earned credits vis--vis total earned grade points shall be calculated. The (CGPA) shall be calculated asSum of the earned grade points during semester SGPA = Sum of credits of semester Sum of total earned grade points CGPA = Sum of total credits The final grade earned shall be as per Table 2 below.
