Guidelines for Preparing the Project Report

 All pages of the project should be numbered. Times New Roman font size 12 should be used. Project
report should be in Black & White format, but one can use colors for graphs & charts. Project Report
should be 60 – 100 pages.

 A good report should include a powerful analysis, and it should be packaged gracefully.

 The reference of the exhibits should be given in the main text as and when required

 If any complicated calculations are made in the exhibits, it is always better to give mathematical
steps, so that the reader can understand at a glance, how one has arrived at specific figures.

 All the sections of the report should be stated distinctly, giving proper headings or subheadings.

 Chapter heading and section heading should be bold and centrally aligned. Subdivision headings
should be typed from left hand margin in title case.

 Tables, graphs and diagrams should have respective numbers, name headings & sources.

 A heading or subheading should not appear at the end of the page all by itself. This should be
followed by a line or two of type. If it is not possible to do so, the heading/subheading should be
carried to the next page.

 Either decimal classification or Arabic numerals can be used for numbering the various sections of
the report. Roman numerals should be avoided; as the number increases it becomes unfamiliar to
the reader.

 The page layout should be proper. 1-inch space in the left margin and 1.5 inches in the right margin
should be left. The length of the paragraphs should not exceed 8-10 lines.

 The interline space should be 1.5 if not 2. Typing should be done on one side of the A4 size executive
bond paper. The text of the report should be 1.5 spaced while quotations & foot notes should be
single spaced.

 The font type should be followed throughout the report, one can use Bold or Italics for emphasis,
but the basic font type should not change.

4
 The expression should be good. The sentences should be crisp and meaningful. Convoluted or
jumbled up sentences are to be avoided.

 Spelling and grammatical errors are to be avoided at all costs. Proper punctuation is very
important

 Footnotes should be numbered consecutively throughout the chapter or at the end of the
chapter.

 (a) Citations should contain full information for identification, viz. author’s name, the
title of the publication, year of publication and page numbers.
For example,
Peter F. Druckers, The Practice of Management, London, Pan Books Ltd., 1955, p.150.

(b) If consecutive reference is also from the same book, then simply use the Latin
abbreviation “ibid’ & write the page number.

(c) Bibliography is a list of alphabetical order references relating to a topic, shared at

the end of report.
For example:
British R. W. et. Al., Cross-Culture Research Methods, New York; John Wiley & Sons, 1973.
