cumulative performance of a student over all the semesters

and the CGPA is the ratio of total credit points secured by a

student in various courses in all the semesters and the sum of

total credits of all the courses in all the semesters and

admittedly, the petitioner did not appear in the LLM Third

Semester (2021) on account of his marriage and thus,

remained absent.

13. As far as the CGPA is concerned, the overall

cumulative performance of student has to be assessed while

determining the CGPA. Since the petitioner has not appeared

in the Third Semester examination of LLM Course (2021),

therefore, the performance of the petitioner cannot be

evaluated. It is further seen that the CGPA is the ratio of the

total credit points secured by a student in all the semesters

and since the petitioner remained absent, therefore, there

could not be any credit point secured by the petitioner in LLM

Third Semester (2021) and thus, the respondents could not

have taken into consideration the Third Semester of LLM

(2021) while determining the CGPA of the petitioner. The

relevant part of guidelines is reproduced hereunder:-

“GUIDELINES FOR CHOICE BASED CREDIT SYSTEM:

7. Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA): It is a

measure of overall cumulative performance of a student over all

semesters. The CGPA is the ratio of total credit points secured by

a student in various courses in all semesters and the sum of the

total credits of all courses in all the semesters. It is expressed up

to two decimal places.

14.It is seen that the petitioner was issued a provisional

mark-sheet for the LLM Additional Semester 1 (Law)

Examination 2022(Regular) on 17.04.2023 (Annexure-7) in

which, the CGPA of the petitioner is mentioned as 4.89. It is

also seen that while issuing the provisional mark-sheet with

the correct date as 17.04.2023,the petitioner acquired the

SGPA for the Third Semester examination, in which he

appeared in 2022, as 6.43 and since the respondents had

applied Divisor of five, the CGPA awarded to the petitioner

was 4.89, however, if the respondents would have applied the

Divisor of four, then, the CGPA of the petitioner would have

been 6.31 while not taking into consideration the SGPA of

LLM Third Semester Examination (2021). The formula to be

adopted by the respondent-University for computation of

CGPA as given in guidelines (Annexure-8) is as follows:-

“Computation of SGPA and CGPA:
