Mobile phones/any form of communication devices are strictly prohibited in the exam
rooms. It is best to leave the mobile phone in the hostel itself before coming for the exam.
Mere possession of a mobile phone/communication device inside the examination hall or
during the exam will be treated as a case of cheating (absolutely no excuses). In such cases,
suitable action will be taken.
No form of unfair means (including talking to another student, copying from another
student͛s paper, copying from any books, notes, cheat sheets, etc., use of mobile
phone/communication devices) during the examination will be tolerated. A student found
resorting to any form of unfair means during the examination, will be given F grade in that
course as a minimum punishment. No appeals will be accepted.
Abetting a student to resort to any form of unfair means will also be considered as an unfair
practice. In this instance as well, the student abetting another student will be given F grade
in that course. No appeals will be accepted. In case the student who is abetting another student
is from a different class/batch, suitable action will be taken on such a student.
Before answering the questions, the student must write his/her name and student
registration number on the answer script.
When an additional sheet is taken by the student, the student must write his/her name and
serial number, sign the additional sheet and must get it countersigned by the invigilator.
Only non-programmable calculators will be allowed during the examinations; programmable
calculators are strictly prohibited.
Exchange of calculators between one and the other is not permitted.
If a student is found with a mobile phone/communication device while taking a break to
use the washroom when the exam is in progress, it will be treated as a case of cheating.
Irrespective of whether the student is using the mobile phone/communication device or not,
the same penalty as in item 4 will be applicable.
