Hello,
I just visited VTU last week for my duplicate marks cards and degree certificate. It was quite straight forward process. I had my police ack and notarised affidavit.
Go to the exam section in VTU and apply for the same at the counter. There is an application for DMC. Fill out each semester’s marks cards date.
There wwas one helpful official there who worked out the fees as the instructiosn are quite misleading.
The fees is realy hefty if you passed out a while back. I had to pay Rs.7950 for all marks cards and certificate (passed in 2005). Be prepared with the money and draw a DD from the SBM opposite the VTU building.
Submitted the documents by 11:30 AM. I recieved all my marks cards and certificate on the same day at 5 PM. All in all, a pain free process at Belgaum except for the money you shell out.
Thanks again Suresh, your write up on visiting Belgaum was very helpful.

I thank you.

Hello Suresh,
I noticed in another post that you can get a consolidated marks card by sending the application via email.
I assume that is not possible for getting duplicate marks card. Is the only way to go direct to VTU?
Thanks!

Hi Mathew,
Its impossible to send application through email. If it is, then I am surprised
Jun 22, 2012 @ 10:23:59
Hi Suresh,
Sorry, I meant regular snail mail..My bad.
Thanks,
Jun 24, 2012 @ 08:20:09
Hi Mathew,
You are right you can get CMC through Snail Mail.

Hi Mathew,
For duplicate marks cards and degree certificate you have to go VTU Belgaum with the required documents(police FIR, affidavit and copy of your marksheets if you have them). I have provide an account of my visit to VTU above.
The fees for each marks card depends on the year you passed a particular sem.
eg. if 2nd sem in 2002; then (fees for each marks cards)*10
3rd sem in 2002 ; then (fees for each marks cards)*10
4th sem in 2003; then (fees for each marks cards)*9
and so on.
Regards,
Jeby

Hey,
I passed out of dayanand sagar, bangalore in 2011, and i havent received my degree certificate till date. It was to come to my house in mangalore, but i wasnt there – so i havent really signed for it or received it personally.
I have a couple of questions now
1. Should i go and claim a duplicate, or will they have my original because i didnt really claim it.
2. I have all my marks cards, all i will need is my degree certificate, could you tell me what my procedure would be, and how long would it possibly take.
3. Can i apply for it at the VTU campus in bangalore for the same. And how different a process would it be if i do so, and how long would that take?
looking forward to a quick reply, as it is important i receive my certificate for immediate requirements.
Thanks,
Priya.

1. They may have the original so its okay to go and check in the VTU
2. Better go to VTU
3. You can apply from college or VTU campus(regional office), but if you think you have applied already then better find where is your degree certificate starting from your college. Going to VTU will be easiest and quickest.

Hi,
In order to apply for a lost marks card, do i need to go through the college i studied or is it enough if i have the affidavit and acknowledgement of the complaint lodged.

Hi Rashmi,
There is no need for you to go to your college. Yes, it’s enough if you have the affidavit and acknowledgement of the complaint lodged.
