Attendance Policy
Attendance Requirement
Regular attendance is essential for academic progress, classroom participation and professional discipline.

Attendance includes lectures, tutorials, practicals and other scheduled academic activities, and attendance records are maintained by the respective departments.
Condonation & Academic Evaluation
Attendance shortage between 65% and 75% may be considered for condonation by the HOD/Academic Committee on genuine and verifiable grounds, subject to the prescribed procedure and applicable conditions. Attendance below 65% is generally not condonable. Medical or officially approved absences may be considered with proper supporting documents. Attendance and active participation may also contribute to internal assessment as per the institutional evaluation scheme.
Non-Compliance & Appeals
Students who do not meet the required attendance criteria and whose shortage is not condoned may be detained and barred from appearing in the examination, with further academic action as per institutional regulations. Attendance is monitored regularly through the institute’s academic/ERP system, and students and parents may receive alerts regarding attendance shortages. Students may submit an appeal or condonation request to the concerned HOD/Academic Committee with the required supporting documents within the prescribed time.
