If the case is that the student graduated from a NAAC A college, then, the same student will get 40 credits per year, summing to 120 credits at the end of 3 years. In your case, if your college is NAAC A, you'll have 120 credits and are good to take up the exams. If it is not NAAC A, then you will have 90 credits. You will have to take up a Diploma programme or a master's programme to get the additional 30 credits to be eligible.
