CHAPTER 1
HOW TO PREPARE REPORT
PRODUCTION OF REPORT
Report Size
The maximum number of pages of the Report should be preferably between 20-25 pages.
Paper Size
1. The standard size of paper of a Report is 21.5 cm (8 inch) wide and 28 cm (11 inches) long.
2. Oversized figures and tables, if any, should be reduced to fit with the size of the report but the
reduction should not be so drastic as to impair clarity of their contents. One may also fold these
pages to fit with the report size.

FORMAT OF REPORT
After the text of the report is written, it is to be formatted in an appropriate manner for printing.
The following guidelines are provided to format the report for easy readability.
Font
1. The preferred font size of the text in the report is 12 point, but in no case should it be less than
11-point. The minimum font size of materials within a table or a figure can be 8 point, however.
2. The preferred font type is Times New Roman
3. The chapter headings should be 16 point. General Headings 14 points.
4. Title & References of figures should have a font of 8 point.
Margins
A margin of 3.75 cm (1 inch) is to be given on the binding edge while on the other sides it is to
be 2.5 cm (1 inch). The text of the report, including headings, figures, tables, and notes, but
excluding page numbers, must be accommodated within the page area.
Line Spacing
1. The line spacing in the main text must be between one-and-a-half and two. Single line spacing
should be given for quotations, abstract, declaration, report approval, figure captions, table titles,
figure legends, footnotes, and references.
2. Equation, tables, figures, and quotations should be set off from the main text with adequate
space (not less than the normal line spacing adopted for the main text).
3. Two consecutive paragraphs should be separated by a spacing which must be larger than the
line spacing adopted for the text.

Page numbering should be proper. There should not be any page number on the title sheet
Page Numbering format:
1. Page numbers for the prefacing materials of the report shall be in small Roman numerals and
should be centered at the bottom of the pages.
2. Page numbers for the body of the report should be in Arabic numerals and should be centered
at the bottom of the pages. The pagination should start with the first page of Chapter 1 and should
continue throughout the text (including tables, figures, and appendices).
1

The page numbering is to be done as done in this file.

THE PREFATORY MATERIALS

Title of the Report
The title of the report should remain same as that given in the project progress sheet.
Cover Page
Cover page should contain the title of the report and the name of the candidates
Acknowledgements
It should be limited, preferably, to one page (Optional)
Contents
Chapter numbers, chapter names, section numbers, section headings, subsection numbers, and
subsection headings, along with the corresponding page numbers, should be given in the
Contents.
Abstract
1. The abstract of the report should be limited to 200-300 words.
2. A list of keywords should follow the abstract.
References
1. IEEE style to be followed
2. Irrespective of the style adopted, the reference details must include the title of the sources.
e.g. - C. E. F. Amaral and B. Wolf, "Effects of glucose in blood and skin impedance
spectroscopy," in AFRICON 2007, 2007, pp. 1-7

Reports without reference page will not be accepted
