In the counter affidavit, filed by the respondent-U.O.I., it has been stated that in preparing combined merit list for engineering entrance examination, 40% weightage will be given to Class 12th Board Exams marks, based on normalised percentile scores, and the remaining 60% weightage be given to the performance in JEE (Main). Thus, dependence on coaching institutes is substantially reduced.;
