Notes.1. It is incumbent on the Coordination Committee proposed in these Regulations and the University to prepare andpublicize within six months subject-wise lists of journals, periodicals and publishers under categories IIIA and B.Till such time, screening/selection committees will assess and verify the categorization and scores ofpublications.2. The API for joint publications will have to be calculated in the following manner: Of the total score for the relevantcategory of publication by the concerned teacher, the first/Principal author and the correspondingauthor/supervisor/mentor of the teacher would share equally 60% of the total points and the remaining 40%would be shared equally by all other authors.Single author – 100% of total pointsTwo Authors (First/Principal author + the corresponding author/supervisor/mentor) – 60% of the total pointsto each. Three or more authors (First/Principal author + the corresponding author/supervisor/mentor + others) - 60%of the total points to each First/Principal author + the corresponding author/supervisor/mentor & 40% of thetotal points to all others.8

Explanatory note for Tables II (a) and II (b)1. The university administration & colleges will set up verifiable systems for the API related information requiredin these tables. They will have to be documented and collated annually by the Internal Quality Assessmentcells (IQACs) of the university / colleges for follow up by the university / college authorities. In order tofacilitate this process, all teachers shall submit the duly filled-in Performance Based Appraisal System(PBAS) pro-forma to the IQAC annually.2. However, in order to remedy the difficulties of collecting retrospective information and to facilitate theimplementation of these regulations from 31-12-2008 in the CAS Promotion, the API based PBAS will beprogressively and prospectively rolled out.3. Accordingly, the PBAS based on the API scores of categories I and II as mentioned in these tables is to beimplemented for one year, initially based on the existing systems in university / colleges for one year only withthe minimum average scores as depicted in Table II (a) and II (b) in rows I to III. This annualized API scores canthen be compounded progressively as and when the teacher becomes eligible for CAS promotion to the nextcadre. Thus, if a teacher is considered for CAS promotion in 2011, one year API scores for 2010-11 alone willbe required for assessment. In case of a teacher being considered for CAS promotion in 2012, two yearsaverage of API scores for these categories will be required for assessment and so on leading progressivelyfor the complete assessment period.4. As shown in Table II, the aggregate minimum API score required (given in row III) can be earned from any ofthe two broad categories, subject to the minimum prescribed in each category. This will provide for dueweightage to teachers who contribute additionally through any of the components given in Categories I and IIalso for the differing nature of contributions possible in different institutional settings5. For Category III (research and academic contributions), maintenance of past record is done on a normal basisby teachers and hence no difficulty is envisaged in applying the API scores for this category for the entireassessment period. In this category, an aggregate minimum score is required for promotion over each stage.Alternatively, a teacher should acquire the required minimum aggregate score over two previous stages,taken together. In the case of promotion to Professor, the publication requirement shall be met over the twoprevious stages.6. Candidates should offer themselves for assessment for promotion, if they fulfill the minimum API scoresindicated in Tables I and II, by submitting an application and the required pro-forma. They can do so threemonths before the due date if they consider themselves eligible. Candidates, who do not consider themselveseligible, can also apply at a later date.7. If however, on final assessment, candidates do not either fulfill the minimum criteria under Rows III and IV ofTables II(A) and II (B) or obtain less than 50% in the expert assessment, they will be reassessed only after aminimum period of one year.8. (a) If a candidate applies for promotion on completion of the minimum eligibility period and is successful, thedate of promotion will be deemed to be the minimum period of eligibility.(b) If however, the candidate finds that she / he fulfills the eligibility conditions at a late date and applies onthat date and is successful, her / his promotion will be deemed to be from that date of application(c) If the candidate does not succeed in the first assessment, but succeeds in an eventual assessment, her /his promotion will be deemed to be from the later date.11
