Provided also that no revaluation shall be allowed in case of scripts of practical, field work, seminar, sessional work, IA, tests and thesis/dissertation/project report submitted at the examination and also for the supplementary examination.
  3. If after viewing the answer book, it is felt by any student of yearly pattern that the level of valuation is not up to the satisfaction of the candidate, he/she may apply for revaluation separately. The fee paid for viewing shall not be refunded /adjusted against the fee of revaluation.

  6. If the marks awarded in the paper by any of the two examiners varies from the marks given by the original examiner by more than 10% of the maximum marks in the paper, the average of the marks awarded by two of the examiners, the original examiner and the two revalues and nearest to each other will be taken to represent the correct valuation. This average of marks will be awarded to the candidate for the revision of his result. Provided that subject to the condition that at least one of the variations from the original marks is more than 10% of the maximum marks in the paper, if two differences in marks allotted by the three examiners are equal, the two marks to the best advantage of the candidate shall be taken into account for arriving at the correct valuation Provided further that if the average of the marks thus arrived at is lesser than the original marks or at least one of the variations from the original marks is less than 10% of the maximum marks in the paper, the original marks will not be changed and the result shall remain unchanged.
  7. If at least one of the variations from the original marks is more than 20% but not more than 30% of the maximum marks in the paper, the answer books shall be sent to a Fourth examiner (other than the original examiner and the two revalues) for valuation.

Provided that if these marks thus arrived at is lesser than the original marks, the original marks will not be reduced and the result shall remain unchanged.
  8. If it is found during the process of revaluation that the variation of marks awarded by the original examiner and by the other two examiners is very large (more than 30%), giving rise to the suspicion that either the original examiner or other examiners have not valued the answer books properly and fairly, the principal may get such cases scrutinized thoroughly and may take such necessary action, which is necessary to arrive at correct valuation of such answer-books.
