    grades/CGPA to percentage of marks would be based on the procedure certified by
    the University/institution from where they have obtained the bachelor’s degree.
    The percentage of marks shall be calculated by rounding off to two places after
    decimal.
    The candidates belonging to SC, VJ/DT (NT (A)), NT (B), NT(C), NT (D), OBC and SBC
    categories should produce “Caste Validity Certificate” issued by Scrutiny Committee
    of Social Welfare Department and the Candidate belonging to ST category should
    submit “Tribe Validity Certificate” issued by Scrutiny Committee of Tribal
    Department and valid Non Creamy Layer certificate except SC, ST candidates at the
    time of verification of documents.
