“The font and size : ‘12 point TimesNewRoman’ with bold letters wherever
necessary shall be used to have uniformity of the project report”.
A sub-heading at the bottom of a page must have atleast two full lines below it or else
it should be carried over to the next page.
The last word of any page should not be split using a hyphen.
One and a half spacing should be used for typing the general text.
NUMBERING INSTRUCTIONS
Page Numbering
All pages numbers (whether it is 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 report (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, Divisions and Sub-Divisions
The numbering of chapters, divisions 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 example, 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 report should bear appropriate
numbers. The rule for assigning such numbers is illustrated through an example. Thus if as
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 Figures 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 continued into the next page this may be done, but no line should be drawn
underneath an unfinished table. The top line of the table continued into the next page should,
for example read Table 2.1 (continued) placed centrally and underlined.
