The tables and Figures should be introduced at the appropriate places.
(d) Page Dimensions and Margin- The dimension of the Project thesis report should be
290mm X 205mm. Standard A4 size (297 mm X 210 mm) paper may be used for
preparing the copies.
The Project Thesis (at the time of submission) should have the following page margins:
Top edge : 25mm
Bottom edge : 25 mm
Left edge : 35 to 40 mm
Right edge : 25 mm
The thesis report should be prepared on good quality white paper preferably bond paper no lower
than 80 gsm. Tables and Figures should conform to the margin specifications. Large size figures
should be photographically or otherwise reduced to the appropriate size before insertion.
(e) Project Thesis Report Preparation-The students will supply a typed copy of the Project
thesis report to the supervisor for the purpose of approval. In the preparation of the
manuscript, care should be taken to ensure that all textual matter is in printed form to the
extent possible in the same format as may be required for the final report.
The headings of all the items 2 to 13 listed in section (c) should be typed in capital letter
without punctuation and centered 50mm below the top of the page. The text should
commence 4 spaces below the heading. The page numbering for all items 1 to 9 should
be done using lower case Roman numerals and the numbers should be places at the
bottom-centre and the pages thereafter should be numbered using Arabic numerals at the
bottom-centre.

The main text may be divided into chapters and each chapter may be further divided into
several divisions and sub-divisions.
Each chapter should be given an appropriate title.
Tables and Figures in a chapter should be typed single space and placed directly
underneath in the very same page, which refers to the material they annotate.
Footnotes should be used sparingly. They should be typed single space and placed
directly underneath in the very same page, which refers to the material they annotate.
Appendices- Appendices are provided to give supplementary information, which if included in

Appendices shall carry the title of the work reported and the same title shall be made in
the contents page also.
The list of publications made by the students (if any) during the work shall be brought in
the Appendix titled, as List of Publications and the same shall be reported in the contents.
The author can refer the publications mentioned in the Appendix in the text of the Project
thesis, by mentioning his/her name followed by Appendix number and the year of
publication, in brackets.
List of Reference- The list of references should appear as a consolidated list with references
listed either alphabetically or sequentially as they appear in the text of the thesis. If pertinent
works have been consulted but not specifically cited, they should be listed as Bibliography or
General References. Spacing and font size should be consistent inside a single reference, and
there should be double spacing between two different references.
Reference Format- For referencing an article in a scientific journal the suggested format should
contain the following information: authors, title, name of journal, volume number, page numbers
and year. For referencing an article published in a book, the suggested format should contain,
authors, the title of the book, editors, publisher, year, page number of the article in the book
being referred to. For referencing a thesis the suggested format should contain, author, the title of
thesis, where thesis was submitted or awarded, year. A few examples of formats of references are
given below and the student should be consistent in following the style.

(g) Typing Instructions
General- This section includes additional information for final typing of the Project thesis
report. Some information given earlier under Manuscript preparation shall also be referred.
One and a half spacing should be used for typing the general text. The general text shall be typed
in font style Times New Roman and Font Size 12.
Chapters- The format for typing Chapter headings, Division heading and sub-division headings
are explained through the following illustrative examples
Chapter headings : CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
Division heading : 1.1 ORGANIZATION OF PROJECT-THESIS
Sub-division heading : 1.1.2 Literature Review
The word CHAPTER without punctuation should be centered 50mm down from the top of the
page. Two spaces below, the title of the chapter should be typed centrally in capital letters. The
text should commence 4 spaces below this title, the first letter of the text starting 20mm, inside
from the left hand margin.
The division and sub-division captions along with their numberings should be left justified. The
typed material directly below division or sub-division headings should commence 2 spaces
below it and should be offset 20mm from the left hand margin. Within a division or sub-division
paragraphs are permitted. Even paragraph should commence 3 spaces below the last line of the
preceding paragraph, the first letter in the paragraph being offset from the left hand margin by
20mm.
(h) Numbering Instructions
Page Numbering- All pages numbers (whether it be in Roman or Arabic numbers) should be
typed without punctuation on the upper right hand corner 20mm from top with the last digit in
line with the right hand margin, The preliminary pages of the Project thesis (such as Title page,
Acknowledgement, Table of Contents etc.) should be numbered in lower case Roman numerals.
The title page will be numbered as (i) but this should not be typed. The page immediately
following the title page shall be numbered (ii) and it should appear at the top right hand corner as
already specified. Pages of main text, starting with Chapter 1 should be consecutively numbered
using Arabic numerals.
Numbering of Chapters, Division and Sub-divisions- The numbering of Chapters, Division
and Sub-divisions should be done using Arabic numerals only and further decimal notation
should be used for numbering the divisions and sub-divisions within a Chapter. For examples
sub-division 4 under division 3 belonging to Chapter 2 should be numbered as 2.3.4. The caption
for the sub-division should immediately follow the number assigned to it.
Every chapter beginning with the first chapter should be serially numbered using Arabic
numerals. Appendices included should also be numbered in an identical manner starting with
Appendix 1.
Numbering of Tables and Figures- Tables and Figures appearing anywhere in the Project-
thesis should, bear appropriate numbers. The rule of assigning such numbers is illustrated
through an example. Thus, if a figure in Chapter 3, happens to be the fourth then assign 3.4 to
that figure. Identical rules apply for tables except that the word figure is replaced by the word
Table. If figures (or tables) appear in appendices then figure 3 in Appendix 2 will be designated
as figure A 2.3. If a table to be continues into the next page this may be done, but on line should
be drawn underneath an unfinished table. The top line of table continued into the next page
should, for example read Table 2.1 (continued) placed centrally and underlined.
Further, tables and figures may be centre justified. Table captioning should be placed above the
Table whereas the figure captioning should be placed below the figure.
Numbering of Equations- Equations appearing in each chapter or Appendix should be
numbered serially, the numbering commencing a fresh for each Chapter or Appendix. Thus for
example, an equation appearing in Chapter 5, if it happens to be the fifth equation in that Chapter
should be numbered (5.5) thus:
RI= q i wi ci
u n
(5.5)
N i 1
n
where N= wi ci , and
i 1
While referring to this equation in the body of the Project-thesis it should be referred to as
Equation (5.5)
(i) Binding Specifications
The cover of the Thesis shall be navy blue in color and printed in silvery-white for B-Tech
students. The text of the cover page and the first inner page will be as per the format enclosed for
reference
