Meaning of "Not Completed" in IGNOU Grade Card

This is the most common query students have. If you see "Not Completed" written against any subject, it means you have failed to clear one of the components.

Reasons for "Not Completed" Status:

1. Assignment Marks Missing: You passed the theory, but assignment marks are not updated yet.
2. Failed in Theory: You passed the assignment, but got passing marks (less than 35% or 40%) in the written exam.
3. Failed in Assignment: Your assignment marks are below the passing criteria.
4. Practical Pending: For science/computer courses, practicals are mandatory.

Solution: If you passed the theory exam recently, wait for 15-20 days. Assignment marks often take time to update after the theory result.

IGNOU Percentage Calculator 2025 (Formula)

IGNOU follows a weightage system. You cannot just add the marks and divide by the number of subjects.

For Most Bachelor/Master Degree Courses:

1. Assignment Weightage: 30%
2. Theory Weightage: 70%

Calculation Formula:

(AssignmentMarks x 0.30) + (TheoryMarks x 0.70) = Final Score

Example:

1. If you got 80 Marks in Assignment.
2. If you got 50 Marks in Theory Exam.
3. Calculation: $(80 \times 0.30) + (50 \times 0.70) = 24 + 35 = \mathbf{59 Marks}$

So, your final marks for that subject will be 59.

What is IGNOU Provisional Certificate?

Once all your subjects show "Completed" in the Grade Card, IGNOU automatically sends a Provisional Certificate and the Final Grade Card (Physical Copy) to your home address via India Post.

This usually takes 20 to 45 days after your final result is declared.
