This notice has been issued on 11 MAR 15.
Before issuing this notice UGC had fully conferred rights to Institutions/Universities deemed to be to confer the degrees following their own nomenclature that’s the reason why BITS was conferring MS. However once UGC came up with new rule to confer MTech in place of MS, BITS readily accepted as they wanted their degrees to be approved by UGC still.
So yes this course is valid course else BITS would not have agreed to follow nomenclature set by UGC.
