For SC category students the eligibility criteria for every IIIT Guwahati PhD programme is relaxed by 5% marks which translates into 0.5 less CPI. For example, Computer Science and Engineering general category candidates should have at least 7.0 CPI. In this case, SC category students will need 6.5 CPI which is 0.5 lesser than usual requirement.
