Further decision on the matter shall be notified in the light of the guidelines/resolution notified by the Government of India / UGC on the matter.
Although the examinations have been postponed, no new dates have been announced as to when the examinations will be held.

It should be noted that many universities have been postponing their final year/semester exams due to the COVID-19 situation and the resulting uncertainties.
Earlier, the University of Delhi postponed its Open Book Exams (OBE) for students in the final year for 10 days. While the Delhi University’s OBEs were scheduled to begin on July 01, 2020 after the postponement, the authorities decided to open the examinations on July 10, 2020.
Similarly, Lucknow University has recently decided to postpone all university exams scheduled to take place on July 07, 2020.
