The procedure and criteria for declaration of result for UGC-NET held on 29th December, 2013 comprises of the following steps:
Step I :
Minimum marks to be obtained in NET for considering a candidate for the award of JRF and eligibility for Assistant Professor: The candidates are required to obtain the following minimum marks separately in Paper-I, Paper-II and Paper-III as given below:

Step III:
Top 15% candidates (for each subject and category), from the merit list mentioned under step-II, were declared qualified for eligibility for Assistant Professor only. By this method, if the number obtained is less than one, it is taken as at least one, i.e., a minimum of one candidate is qualified wherever a fraction less than one is obtained as per this methodology. However, for fractions greater than one, the figure is rounded off to the nearest whole number.

Criteria for Awarding Junior Research Fellowships

Out of the candidates qualified for eligibility for Assistant Professor, those candidates who had applied for JRF, were in the consideration zone for the award of slots available for JRF. The methodology for allocation of JRF slots among different subjects category-wise described below is in addition to the category-wise minimum criterion for eligibility for Assistant Professor.

   No. of Slots Available for JRF
   GEN (Unreserved)	1520	47.50%
   OBC (Non-creamy layer))	864	27.00%
