specialization.
9. Attendance
IIM Raipur insists on regular and prompt attendance in classes. Attendance will be taken
by the instructor directly and the students should be attentive at the time of attendance to
get their presence recorded in the attendance register. Unauthorized absence from
class/institute will be considered a breach of discipline and the Institute will be free to
take appropriate action in such cases, to an extent upto rustication from the Programme &
from the Institute.
9.1 Under extra-ordinary circumstances, students may obtain leave of absence under the
following rules and procedures:
a) Prior permission must be obtained from the PGP Chairman for availing of leave.
Students who are going out of station or to their local guardian for overnight stay must
inform Student Affairs Department and obtain permission from Chairperson of
Students Affairs Committee. If a student is noticed to be out of station or overnight stay
without any intimation, disciplinary action will be taken against him/her up to the
extent of debarring from appearing in the examinations.
b) In case of sickness, students should apply for Medical Leave as mentioned in clause
10.
9.2 Certain exemptions are allowed for absence on account of official duty/Institute work. The
Chairperson Placements is allowed to award 2 exemptions on account of Placement Work,
and Chairperson, SA is allowed to grant 3 exemptions on account of business school
competitions, festival organization etc. The approved On Duty (OD) application must be

trimester, he/she shall obtain permission from Chairperson-SAC. He/she shall have to
adjust the absence during the event within 20% of absence allowed as per clause no. 9.3.
below.
11
9.3 Each student is expected to attend a minimum of 80% of classes in each course (i.e. in a 3
credit course, 16 classes out of 20). The grade penalty will be imposed on all the students
who do not meet the minimum 80% attendance requirements in each course in the
following manner:
Attendance of Student Grade Penalty
More than or equal to 70% but less than 80% One grade drop (e.g. from A+ to A)
More than or equal to 60% but less than 70% Two grade drops (e.g. from A+ to A-)
More than or equal to 50% but less than 60% Three grade drops (e.g. from A+ to
B+)
Less than 50% F grade will be awarded
- If a student gets ‘D’ grade in a particular course and also gets a grade drop due to
attendance shortage, ‘D’ will become an ‘F’ grade.
10. Medical Leave
Students are expected to attend scheduled classes, orientation sessions, quizzes and
examinations during terms as indicated in the academic calendar. Under extraordinary
circumstances, students may obtain leave of absence from Programme, by submitting an
application to Chairman-PGP or by sending an email to PGP Office.
In case of sickness, students must produce the medical certificate that should be issued
and/or countersigned by the Institute Medical Officer/Doctor (approved) within 2 days
from the date of joining. No student shall be allowed to join the Programme unless he/she
produce the medical fitness certificate which is duly endorsed by Institute approved
Medical Officer/Doctor.
The Medical Officer/Doctor will issue the medical certificates only in case of diagnosed
illness where they are convinced that the student is too ill to attend classes. These include
hospitalization, communicable diseases and accidental injuries (fractures, deep trauma,
etc.).
Before applying to Chairman-PGP for leave, the student should contact his/her faculty
members to ensure that he/she is not missing any quizzes or examinations during the
leave period.
The PGP Office or concerned faculty will not be responsible for the student losing any
segment of evaluation on account of leave. If leave is approved by the PGP Committee for
Medical reasons for the examinations, for the repeat Mid / End Term examination the
concerned faculty member(s) has full discretion to increase the difficulty level, as the
student has effectively had more time to prepare.
11. Academic Performance Evaluation System
The following are the guidelines for academic performance evaluation system:
11.1 The evaluation of academic performance is based on varying combinations of the
following components:
a) Assignments, Quizzes, Class participation etc.
b) Project Work / Term Paper
c) Mid-term Examination
d) Term-end Examination
While components (c) and (d) are mandatory for a full course and contribute to
minimum of 50%. The proportionate relative weightage of the other components for a
12
specific course will be at the discretion of the instructor. The evaluation scheme for
every course will be conveyed to the students at the beginning of the course along with
the course outline by the course instructor. Attendance is must for Mid and End Term
examinations for every student in each term, failing which he/she will be debarred from
the registration for next term. Such students are required to continue from that term
along with next batch.
The instructor will assign a numeric score to each student, which will be the weighted
sum of component scores. Numeric score for individual components along with class
distribution of scores may be communicated to the students. A ten point grading scale
with corresponding letter grades as follows will be used for assigning a relative grade
for each course:
Letter
Grade
Grade
Points
Letter
Grade
Grade
Points
A+ 10 C+ 4
A 9 C 3
A- 8 C- 2
B+ 7 D 1
B 6 F 0
B- 5 I Incomplete* (*Absent in Mid/End Term Examination)
“In case of a student obtaining ‘I’ Grade, he/she shall be required to repeat that
component in that course before Mid-Term Examination of the subsequent term. If the
reason for absence for Mid/End Term examination does not come under
Medical/exigencies, a loss of two grades will be imposed after re-examination result. If
the student is unable to appear for the re-examination on the said due date, he/she will
be awarded ‘F’ Grade.”
The Term Grade Point Average (TGPA) will be calculated by computing the sum of
grade points in respective courses multiplied by their respective credits, and dividing it
by the total credits for all courses in the term.
Similarly, the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) will be calculated at the end of
each term as a composite index of the academic performance of the student up to that
term in the Programme. Therefore, it means that TGPA is an indicator of student
performance for a term, whereas CGPA is an indicator of student performance up to a
term.
The Faculty Council resolved the following:
1. About 30% students may be given ‘A’ grade including A+, A and A-.
2. Grading will be done by the faculty themselves. Faculty members will decide the
percentage of ‘B’ or ‘C’ grades depending upon the number of students and their class
performance.
3. The grade submitted by the faculty will be discussed in the moderation committee
along with the course faculty and PGP Committee members.
11.2 A student is required to achieve the minimum standards as prescribed below:
i. Students are required to maintain a TGPA of 4.0 in each term, as well as an average
of 4.5 at the end of the first year. Failure to do so will lead to the student being asked
13
to leave the Programme.
ii. Graduating students at the end of the second year will maintain a CGPA of 4.5 to
qualify for the diploma.
iii. Placement support will not be provided to any student who does not maintain the
cumulative GPA requirement of 5.00 by the end of the 4th term.
iv. Merit students (those who are aspiring to receive special awards) will not have any F
grade awarded to them in any course.
v. Despite the CGPA, no student will be allowed to accumulate more than 2F/4D/
(1F+2D) grades, at any given point of time. Failure to maintain this will result in the
student being asked to leave the course.
11.3 For students participating in International exchange Programme, the CGPA shall be
calculated as follows:
- For Exchange Programme students, the student will study at a foreign university for
one term preferably in the second year. The award of grades will be on the basis of
courses taken at IIM Raipur in FIVE Terms and courses taken in the foreign university
for one term. CGPA will be calculated for all SIX Terms by considering the evaluation
at foreign university (equivalent grade) and GPA of the five terms at IIM Raipur.
11.4 If a student fails to qualify any course during the International Exchange Programme,
then F grade obtained in a course(s) will be considered for the purpose of academic
evaluation at IIM Raipur. Separate detailed guidelines for International Exchange
