The passing mark for each theory subject, including sessional marks is 40% with a minimum of 30% marks in the end semester examination. If there is no sessional for a subject, students are required to score a minimum of 30% in the end-semester examination.

In order to pass AKTU semesters, you will need to score 30 marks out of 100. If the subject total is 50 then you will need to score 15, in order to pass the exam.
Though there are no such fixed criteria to pass a semester at AKTU, you need to pass at least 6 subjects in order to be promoted to the next semester.
Further, AKTU has changed its curriculum and pattern of the semester since 2018. The semester will consist of 3 subjects each. So the passing criteria would be the same but in order to get promoted into next year, you have to pass at least 3 of the subjects in every year of B.Tech.
