INTRODUCTION

RECOMMENDATIONS OF NATIONAL REGULATORY AUTHORITIES
The University Grants Commission (UGC), the National Assessment and
Accreditation Council (NAAC), the Distance Education Council (DEC) and the
National Knowledge Commission (NKC) have tim e and again come out with
recommendations for improving the quality and effectiveness of Higher education
provisions in the country. The ministry of Human Resource Development at the
Central level and the Ministry of Higher & Technical Education, Govt. of
Maharashtra have also repeatedly stressed on the need for universities to pay prompt
attention to improve the quality of education. The National Knowledge Commission
(NKC) , in its report to the Prime Minister on 29th November 2006) has also reiterated
the importance of higher education and the contribution it has made to economic
development, social progress and political democracy in independent India.
An important concern voiced more strongly in recent times, is the need to develop a
Choice -Based Credit S ystem (CBCS) in tune with global trends and the adoption of a
sound grading system for reflecting learner performance. This is in line with the
recommendation of the UGC in its Action Plan for Academic and Administrative
Reforms (Ref. UGC letters January 2 008; March 2009) “……. Curricular flexibility
and learners’ mobility is an issue that warrants our urgent attention. These can be
addressed by introducing credit based courses and credit accumulation. In order to
provide with some degree of flexibility to l earners, we need to provide flexibility in
course selection and also a minimum as well as a maximum permissible span of time
in which a course can be completed by a learner… The Choice -Based Credit System
(CBCS) imminently fits into the emerging socioecono mic milieu, and could effectively
respond to the educational and occupational aspirations of the upcoming generations.
In view of this, institutions of higher education in India would do well to invest
thought and resources into introducing CBCS. Aided by modern communication and
information technology, CBCS has a high probability to be operationaliz ed efficiently
and effectively — elevating learners, institutions and higher education system in the
country to newer heights…”.

RATIONALE FOR INTRODUCTION OF C REDIT AND GRADING SYSTEM
The UGC while outlining the several unique features of the Choice -Based Credit
System (CBCS) has, in fact, given in a nutshell, the rationale for its introduction.
Among the features highlighted by the UGC are: Enhanced learning op portunities,
ability to match learners’ scholastic needs and aspirations, inter -institution
transferability of learners (following the completion of a semester), part -completion
of an academic programme in the institution of enrolment and part -completion i n a
specialized (and recognized) institution, improvement in educational quality and
excellence, flexibility for working learners to complete the programme over an
extended period of time, standardization and comparability of educational
programmes across the country, etc.
This Choice Based Credit System enables a much -required shift in focus from
teacher -centric to learner -centric education since the workload estimated is based on
the investment of time in learning, not in teaching. It also focuses on con tinuous
evaluation which will enhance the quality of education. It can be concluded from the
above discussion that it is very much essential to implement the Choice Based Credit
System in higher education in India. Course credit structure, examination/asse ssment
and grading are mainly focused aspects of this manual and discussed in subsequent
chapters.
DIRECTIVES OF PHARMACY COUNCIL OF INDIA
The Pharmacy Council of India (PCI) in exercise of the powers conferred to it under
the sections 10 and 18 of the Pha rmacy Act 1948 (8 of 1948), with the approval of the
Central Government, had made the Bachelor of Pharmacy (B. Pharm.) Course
Regulations, 2014 and Master of Pharmacy (M. Pharm.) Course regulations vide
Gazette dated December 10, 2014. Further as per regul ations 6 and 8 of the above
course regulations the PCI has also prescribed the Rules and Syllabus for B. Pharm.
course and Scheme and Syllabus for M. Pharm. , its letter Ref 14 -136/2016 -PCI and
Ref 14 -154/2015 PCI dated December 21, 2016, with the subject h eading “Statutory
Scheme/Rules and syllabus for B. Pharm and M. Pharm. courses” . It is thus
mandatory to implement the directives of PCI with regard to the
Rules/Regulations/Syllabus for recognition and extension of approval of B. Pharm.
and M. Pharm. prog rams of institutes/Universities by the PCI

of candidates of backward category and persons with disability belonging to
Maharashtra state only.) in t he above subjects taken together and obtained score in
CET / NEET / any other equivalent exam is eligible for admission to Semester I of
First Year B. Pharm. However, the rules/regulations and qualifications for admission
will be those in effect at the day and time of admission.
 Admission criteria for admission into Semester III of Bachelor of Pharmacy
(Lateral Entry to Second Year B. Pharm.) is as follows:
In general, a learner who has passed Diploma course in Pharmacy with an aggregate
of 45% (at least 40 marks in case of candidates of backward category and persons
with disability belonging to Maharashtra state only.) from an All India Council for
Technical Education or Pharmacy Council of India or Central or State Government
approved institutions or its e quivalent. However, the rules/regulations and
qualifications for admission will be those in effect at the day and time of admission.

2. COURSE STRUCTURE
2.1. Duration of the program
The course of study for B. Pharm . shall extend over a period of eight sem esters (four
academic years) and six semesters (three academic years) for lateral entry students.
The medium of instruction shall be English.

Page 7

2.2. Working days in each semester
Each semester shall consist of not less than 100 working days. The odd semeste rs
shall be c onducted from the month of July to November/December and the even
semesters shall be conducted from December/January to May/June in every calendar
year.
As the requirements for a particular degree (undergraduate or postgraduate), a certain
quantum of academic work measured in terms of credits is laid down in general.
Learner earns credits every semester by satisfactorily clearing courses/other academic
activities. The amount of credit associated with a course is dependent upon the
number of hou rs of instruction per week in that course. Similarly the credit associated
with any of the other activities is dependent upon the quantum of work expected to be
put in for each of the other activity per week.

2.3. Attendance and progress
According to ordi nance O.6086 (repealing O.119, O.120 and O.125), it is mandatory
for every learner to have minimum 50% attendance for each course and average
attendance of all the courses together has to be 75% in each semester. The candidate
shall complete the prescribed course satisfactorily to be eligible to appear for the
respective examinations.
2.4. Credit Assignment
2.4.1. Theory and Laboratory Courses:
Courses are broadly classified as Theory courses and Laboratory Courses. Theory
courses consist of lecture ( L) and /or tutorial ( T) hours. Laboratory courses consist of
practical hours, but may have attached tutorial hours in special cases. Credit ( C) for a
course is dependent on the number of hours of instruction per week in that course, and
is obtained by using a mu ltiplier of one ( 1) for lecture and tutorial hours, and a
multiplier of half ( 1/2) for laboratory hours. Thus, for example, a theory course
having four lectures and one tutorial per week throughout the semester carries a
credit of 5. Similarly, a laborator y course having two laboratory hours per week
throughout semester carries a credit of 1.
For example –
Theory course Laboratory course
L T = C P T = C

register for examination(s) of any course in any semester.
9. GRADING OF PERFORMANCES
9.1. Letter grades and grade points allocations:
Based on the performances, each student shall be awarded a final letter grade at the
end of the semester for each course. The letter grades and their corresponding grade

Page 17

points are given in Table – 4.
Table – 4: Letter grades and grade points equivalent to Percentage of marks and
performances
Percentage of
Marks Obtained Letter Grade Grade Point Performance
90.00 – 100 O 10 Outstanding
80.00 – 89.99 A 9 Excellent
70.00 – 79.99 B 8 Good
60.00 – 69.99 C 7 Fair
50.00 – 59.99 D 6 Averag e
Less than 50 F 0 Fail
Absent AB 0 Fail
A learner who remains absent for any end semester examination shall be assigned a
letter grade of AB and a corresponding grade point of zero. He/she should reappear
for the said evaluation/examination in due cour se.
9.2. The Semester grade point average (SGPA)
The performance of a student in a semester is indicated by a number called
‘Semester Grade Point Average’ (SGPA). The SGPA is the weighted average of the
grade points obtained in all the courses by the stude nt during the semester. For
example, if a student takes five courses(Theory/Practical) in a semester with credits
C1, C2, C3, C4 and C5 and the student’s grade points in these courses are G1, G2,
G3, G4 and G5, respectively, and then students’ SGPA is equa l to:
C1G1 + C 2G2 + C 3G3 + C 4G4+ C 5G5
SGPA = ------- --------------------------------------------------
C1 + C 2 + C 3 + C 4+ C 5
The SGPA is calculated to two decimal points. It should be noted that, the SGPA for
any semester shall take into consideration the F and AB grade awarded in that
semester. For exa mple if a learner has an F or AB grade in course 4, the SGPA shall
then be computed as:
C1G1 + C 2G2 + C 3G3 + ZERO+ C 5G5
SGPA = ----------------------- --------------------------------------
C1 + C 2 + C 3 + C 4+ C 5

Page 18

9.3. Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)
The CGPA is calculated with the SGPA of all the VIII semesters to two decimal
points and is indicated in final grade report card/final transcript showin g the grades of
all VIII semesters and their courses. The CGPA shall reflect the failed status in case
of F grade(s), till the course(s) is/are passed. When the course(s) is/are passed by
obtaining a pass grade on subsequent examination(s) the CGPA shall o nly reflect the
new grade and not the fail grades earned earlier. The CGPA is calculated as:
C1S1 + C 2S2 + C 3S3 + C 4S4+ C 5S5+ C 6S6+ C 7S7+ C 8S8
CGPA = -------------------------------------------------------------------------
C1 + C 2 + C 3 + C 4+ C5+ C 6+ C 7+ C 8
where C 1, C2, C3,…. is the total number of credits for semester I,II,III,…. and S 1,S2,
S3,….is the SGPA of semester I,II,III,…. .
9.4. Declaration of class
Although the GPA system is a stand -alone system of grading not amenable to
facile con version to percent marks, i n general the conversion of CGPA to percent
marks is: CGPA x 9. 5 = Perce nt marks.
The class shall be awarded on the basis of CGPA as follows:
First Class with Distinction = CGPA of. 7.37 and above
First Class = CGPA of 6.32 to 7. 36
Second Class = CGPA of 6.00 to 6 .31
9.5. Project work
The internal and external examiner appointed by the college but approved by the
Board of Studies for Pharmacy shall evaluate the project at the time of the Practical
examinations of other semester(s) . Students shall be evaluated in groups for four
hours (i.e., about half an hour for a group of five students). The projects shall be
evaluated as per the criteria given below.
