SUBJECT NAME MATHEMATICS (BASIC) (Q.P. CODE 430/1/1) 
General Instructions: - 
1 You are aware that evaluation is the most important process in the actual and correct assessment of the 
candidates. A small mistake in evaluation may lead to serious problems which may affect the future 
of the candidates, education system and teaching profession. To avoid mistakes, it is requested that 
before starting evaluation, you must read and understand the spot evaluation guidelines carefully. 
2 “Evaluation policy is a confidential policy as it is related to the confidentiality of the examinations 
conducted, evaluation done and several other aspects. It’s leakage to public in any manner could 
lead to derailment of the examination system and affect the life and future of millions of 
candidates. Sharing this policy/document to anyone, publishing in any magazine and printing in 
News Paper/Website etc. may invite action under various rules of the Board and IPC.” 
3 Evaluation is to be done as per instructions provided in the Marking Scheme. It should not be done 
according to one’s own interpretation or any other consideration. Marking Scheme should be strictly 
adhered to and religiously followed. However, while evaluating, answers which are based on 
latest information or knowledge and/or are innovative, they may be assessed for their 
correctness otherwise and due marks be awarded to them. In class-X, while evaluating two 
competency-based questions, please try to understand given answer and even if reply is not 
from marking scheme but correct competency is enumerated by the candidate, due marks 
should be awarded. 
4 The Marking scheme carries only suggested value points for the answers. 
These are in the nature of Guidelines only and do not constitute the complete answer. The students can 
have their own expression and if the expression is correct, the due marks should be awarded accordingly. 
5 The Head-Examiner must go through the first five answer books evaluated by each evaluator on the 
first day, to ensure that evaluation has been carried out as per the instructions given in the Marking 
Scheme. If there is any variation, the same should be zero after deliberation and discussion. The 
remaining answer books meant for evaluation shall be given only after ensuring that there is no 
significant variation in the marking of individual evaluators. 
6 
Evaluators will mark ( ?) wherever answer is correct. For wrong answer CROSS ‘X” be 
marked. Evaluators will not put right ( ?) while evaluating which gives an impression that answer is 
correct and no marks are awarded. This is most common mistake which evaluators are 
committing. 
7 If a question has parts, please award marks on the right-hand side for each part. Marks awarded for 
different parts of the question should then be totaled up and written in the left-hand margin and 
encircled. This may be followed strictly. 
8 If a question does not have any parts, marks must be awarded in the left-hand margin and encircled. 
This may also be followed strictly. 
9 If a student has attempted an extra question, answer of the question deserving more marks should be 
retained and the other answer scored out with a note “Extra Question”. 
10 No marks to be deducted for the cumulative effect of an error. It should be penalized only once. 
11 A full scale of marks  (example 0 to 80/70/60/50/40/30 marks as given in Question Paper) has to be 
used. Please do not hesitate to award full marks if the answer deserves it. 
12 Every examiner has to necessarily do evaluation work for full working hours i.e., 8 hours every day 
and evaluate 20 answer books per day in main subjects and 25 answer books per day in other subjects 
(Details are given in Spot Guidelines).This is in view of the reduced syllabus and number of questions 
in question paper.

13 Ensure that you do not make the following common types of errors committed by the Examiner in the

Wrong totaling of marks awarded on an answer. 
Wrong transfer of marks from the inside pages of the answer book to the title page.

clearly indicated. It should merely be a line. Same is with the X for incorrect answer.) 
Half or a part of answer marked correct and the rest as wrong, but no marks awarded. 
14 While evaluating the answer books if the answer is found to be totally incorrect, it should be marked 
as cross (X) and awarded zero (0) Marks. 
15 Any unassessed portion, non-carrying over of marks to the title page, or totaling error detected by the 
candidate shall damage the prestige of all the personnel engaged in the evaluation work as also of the 
Board. Hence, in order to uphold the prestige of all concerned, it is again reiterated that the 
instructions be followed meticulously and judiciously. 
16 The Examiners should acquaint themselves with the guidelines given in the “Guidelines for

17 Every Examiner shall also ensure that all the answers are evaluated, marks carried over to the title page, 
correctly totaled and written in figures and words.

the prescribed processing fee. All Examiners/Additional Head Examiners/Head Examiners are once
