For applicants who are continuing in service, the experience will be counted latest up to January 31, 2022, irrespective of

Note: For the qualifying/bachelor’s degree of the applicant, the percentage of marks awarded by University/Institution/
College, as applicable, will be treated as final. If the University/Institution/College does not award the percentage of
marks, it will be calculated on the basis of the marks obtained in all subjects listed in the marks-sheet submitted by the
applicant.
Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) performance will be converted into ‘marks percentage’ as shown below:
Marks Percentage = 60 + (40/3.5) x [(CGPA obtained / Total CGPA) x 10 – 6.5]
Note: The above conversion is only for computing the academic rating (AR). While submitting the application online,
applicants should fill in the actual marks percentage/CGPA as provided by her/his University/Institution/College, as
applicable. We will NOT accept any equivalence of conversion from CGPA to percentage marks provided by any individual
universities/institution/college; in this case, the final and binding method of conversion will be as provided above.
