Academic Requirements: In addition to the attendance requirements a candidate should satisfy the academic requirements of the following.

Minimum Pass percentage: 
A student has to secure not less than 35% marks in external examinations and minimum of 40% marks in sum total of internal & external exams of each theory / laboratory / design / drawing subject and project. A student is eligible to promote only if he secure minimum attendance for each semester / year.
A student will not be promoted from 2nd year to 3rd year unless he fulfills the academic requirements of 34 credits up to II year I semester from all the examinations, whether if write the exam or not.
In first year B.Tech 56 credits for 11 subjects and II year I semester 28 credits for 8 subjects, total 84 credits up to 2nd yr 1st semester, out of 84 credits 34 credits are required to promote III year B.Tech I Semester. For simple understanding a student should pass minimum 40% subjects (out of 19 subjects, passing in 8 subjects is enough) to fulfill the credit criteria.

A student is promoted from 3rd  year to 4th year only if he fulfills the academic requirements of 56 credits up to III year B.Tech I semester whether he write examination or not.

In the similar calculation as above, up to 3nd year 1st total subject credits are 140 (56+28+28+28) and student has to secure 56 credits (it is 40% in the total credits). Similarly a student should pass minimum 40% subjects (out of 35 subjects, passing in 14 subjects is enough) to fulfill the credit criteria to promote III year to IV year B.Tech.

A student should register and put up minimum attendance in all the subjects i.e., 224 credits and earn 216 credits (2 theory subjects are exempted). Marks secured in the best 216 credits shall be considered for the calculation of percentage of marks i.e., least scored 2 subjects will not be taken in the calculation of percentage.

Students who fail to fulfill above 216 credits as indicated in the course structure with 10 academic years from year of admission, shall forfeit their seat in B.Tech course and their admission stands cancelled.
