The National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) has revised the accreditation grades of 53 higher education institutions (HEIs) following appeals, reassessment, and updated results between October-December.

Out of the 53 institutions listed, 28 universities secured Grade A and above, A++ was awarded to three institutions, seven got A+, and 18 got A grade in three months. Eleven institutions recorded no change in grade despite filling appeals in October cycle.

The NAAC has recently launched a new framework called the Basic Binary Accreditation, followed by Maturity Based Graded Levels (MBGL) accreditation, as recommended by the Dr Radhakrishnan committee.

Institutions accredited under the revised framework, whose validity expires between January 27, 2024 and the launch of MBGL accreditation, will receive a one-time extension of up to three months. Such institutions may also opt for basic accreditation when it launches, while continuing quality assurance through their Internal Quality Assurance Cells (IQAC cells).

NAAC grading system

As per NAACs grading system, institutions securing a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 3.01 and above are placed in A category and higher, while scores below 1.50 results in non-accreditation. For A++ grade, the highest NAAC score of 3.51 and above is required.

“Final CGPA value is rounded off to two decimal points. The grading pattern has been prepared as inclusive class intervals i.e., both the upper limit and lower limit are included in the respective class interval.”

The accreditation outcome is based on three components – the peer team report, quantitative metrics-based graphical analysis, and the institutional grade sheet – all of which should be displayed on the official website.
