Certificates issued by Principals, Directors, Heads of Department (HOD), or Deans will be outright rejected.
  • Proof of Journal Indexing: High-impact publications and authorship claims must be accompanied by documentary proof of UGC-CARE, SCI, or Scopus listing and impact factor. No marks are allotted without concrete documentary proof.
