Grace marks shall not be taken into consideration for eligibility for refund of the challenge evaluation fee.
“Challenge valuation is permitted for all theory papers only. Answer scripts will be evaluated by a suitable external examiner selected from the panel of examiners approved by the Vice-Chancellor. However, such examiners should not have been valuers for that paper during the examination. The answer scripts for Challenge Valuation can also be sent to examiners or other universities, said VC.
