Sorry that you are not eligible for PhD course with 52% of marks. It is necessary that you must score at least 55% of marks to be eligible for PhD course. However, if you are belonging to reserved category then you may have chance to be eligible for PhD course. This is because up to 5% relaxation will be given to reserved category students.
