Clarification Regarding Paperwise Exemption
(a) The paperwise exemption is granted only on the basis of specific request
received in writing from a registered student along with the attested photocopies
of marks sheets for all parts of the Degree/examination (on the basis of which the
paperwise exemption is sought) and the exemption fee @ 100/- per paper. It
is one time payment and not to be remitted for availing of paper wise exemption
in every session of examination during the validity of registration period.
(b) The application for claiming paperwise exemption must reach the Institute on or
before the last date for submission of enrolment application i.e. 25th March and
25th September for June and December examinations respectively and with a
late fee of100/-, the application can be accepted upto 9th April and 10th
October respectively.
(c) The paperwise exemption once granted holds good during the validity of
registration period or passing/completing the examination, whichever is earlier.
d) The paperwise exemption is cancelled only on receipt of a specific request in
writing from the student concerned on or before the last date for submission of
the enrolment application. If any candidate appears in the exempted paper(s) of
examination without receiving the written confirmation from the Institute, but by
making personal representation, appeal, request, etc., at the Examination Centre
at the last moment, his/her appearance in such paper(s) shall automatically be
treated as cancelled.
(e) It may be noted that candidates who apply for grant of paper wise exemption or
seek cancellation of paper wise exemption already granted, before the last date
of submission of enrolment applications for a particular examination, must see
and ensure that they receive written confirmation from the Institute at least 15-20
days prior to the commencement of the examination. Candidates who would
presume automatic grant or cancellation of paper wise exemption without
obtaining written confirmation on time and absent themselves in any paper(s) of
examination and/or appear in the exempted paper(s) would do so at their own
risk and responsibility and the matter will be dealt with as per the above
guidelines.
(f) Exemption once cancelled on request in writing shall not be granted again under
any circumstances.
(g) The candidates who have passed either group of the Intermediate/Final
examination under the old syllabus, may claim the paperwise exemption in the
corresponding subject(s) of new syllabus indicating the basis of exemption as
“APO” in the appropriate column of the enrolment application.
(h) In case the paperwise exemption has already been granted on the basis of
qualification or the candidates is eligible for grant of exemption on the basis of
securing 60% or more marks, a photocopy of the letter/marks-sheet issued by
the Institute should be enclosed with the enrolment application while claiming
such exemption, failing which the same may not be granted for the ensuing
examination.
(i) No exemption fee is payable for availing paperwise exemption on the basis of
“APO” or on the basis of securing 60% or more marks in the Institute’s
examination.
(j) Paperwise exemption fee is payable only when the exemption is to be availed on
the basis of qualification(s) specified for the purpose.
