6. Department of Computer Science

Department is equipped with 5 Computer Labs, cater to all those students who take computers as their

major/optional papers. They are used as teaching Labs. Computer Science courses are taught in one of five labs.

Each lab is well equipped with latest workstations. The computers in labs are upgraded and replaced on a regular

basis to keep them up-to-date with the current state of technology. The labs also have a computer for the

professor, a projector.

To expose our students to multiple platforms, our workstations boot into both Windows and Linux operating

systems.

We have the Latest software which supports the curriculum. We are using the LCD Projector as one of the

teaching aids. The labs are provided with Internet facility.

Annexure-2

Exit Policy

Once the formal incubation period ends, the company should be strong enough to survive outside

of the incubator and within the competitive marketplace; this is one of the most critical phases of

its life.

There are several ways for a start-up to exit the incubation programme. The start-up company exits

the incubation programme and (1) continues independently, (2) is acquired by (or merged with) an

established company, (3) discontinues its operations, or (4) is participating in a so-called growth

programme offered by the incubator or other involved stakeholders. These growth support and

infrastructure programmes aim to support start-ups with high growth potential after the incubation

phase that still need support or dedicated infrastructure (office space, R&D labs, etc.) that they

themselves cannot yet finance or realize.

Period of Incubation/ Exit:

The incubate company shall be offered an incubation period of two years. However based on the

performance of the company and a written request the term can be extended by six months.

Exit: An Incubate company will leave the incubator under the following circumstances:

1. Completion of two years‟ stay (depending upon the students course year when applied)

(if no extension granted)

2. Underperformance or non-viability of business proposition as decided on case to case

basis.

3. Irresolvable promoters‟ disputes on a case to case basis.

4. Violation of any Incubation policy

5. When the company enters in an acquisition, merger or amalgamation deal or

reorganization deal resulting in a substantial change in the profile of the company, its

promoters, directors, shareholders, products or business plan.

6. Change in promoters team without concurrence of committee.

7. Any change of more than 50% of equity ownership would require a prior approval of

committee.

Any other reason for which committee may find it necessary for an incubate company

to leave. Not with standing anything written elsewhere, committee decision in

connection with the exit of an incubate company shall be final and shall not be disputed

by any incubate company.

28

Equity exit policy

The equity-only compensation model characterizes the new for-profit incubation centers. In

exchange for the space, seed capital, managerial and technical advise and network of contacts, the

incubation center gets an equity stake in the startup. How much equity the incubator takes depends

on the services and value it provides, the stage of development of the startup and, usually, the

bargaining capacity of both parties.

One of the objectives of Incubation is to utilize the technical expertise and lab infrastructure, thus

every company that is offered incubation has the option to select one faculty who shall act as

mentor of the Incubate and guide the company on product develop. The incubatee shall offer a 3%

of share equity (on mutual agreed basis) or a consultation fee to the College as a consideration of

mentorship of which 1% would be given to the concerned mentor.

The incubatee company shall allot 3% of the equity towards incubation and shall be maintained till

the Company exits from the Incubator or the Company and Promoters raise investment from an

Angel Investor, Venture Capital Fund or any other source (This will be applicable from the day

product is ready from market). Equity will be decided based on various factors such as: duration of

the incubation support needed by the company, financial condition of the company, revenue of the

company etc.

If the company fails to raise investment from an Angel Investor, Venture Capital Fund or any other

source for a period of five years from the date of the last issuance of shares in favour of Incubator,

Incubator will have a right to sell its holding to the promoters of the Company at a value which

will be higher of book value and fair value, and promoters of the Company will be bound to buy

the shares from Incubator as stated above.

The main exit strategy for startups is to sell the company to a bigger one for a profit. The buyer

takes over the startup using cash or stock as a compensation. Exits provide capital to startup

investors, which can then return the money to their limited partners (in the case of Venture

Capitalists) or to the investors themselves (in the case of business angels). It is mutual between the

startup and Incubation center to retain the equity or encash it at the time of accusation.

Annexure-3

Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs)

Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) are used for understanding the maturity of a technology

during its acquisition phase. TRLs allow technical team/evaluators to have a consistent datum of

reference for understanding technology evolution, regardless of their technical background.

Current TRL scale is a metric with NINE Technology Readiness Levels for describing the maturity

of a technology from ideation stage TRL-1 to highest degree of application/commercial readiness

TRL -9 TRLs measure Core Technology maturity in a program not only during the selection

process but in subsequent monitoring and evaluation phases also, until these technologies or

products utilizing them, attain market readiness. Levels in between covers – establishment of proof

of concept – prototype development – functional validations from models to real operational

environments & clearances of mandatory regulatory barrierbetween levels towards market

introduction of these technologies/products.
