To dispose/ scrap the equipment, the concerned lab in charge must submit the request letter (after receipt of necessary signatures including that of the Principal) to the Joint Director of technical education. The letter should clearly mention the reason for scrap of the equipment.

In order to a scrap any equipment, the below supporting documents must be submitted by the lab in charge along with the request:

• Cost of the equipment at the time of purchase

Upon receipt of the request, the Joint Director of technical education will nominate a committee of at least three members to verify if the equipment is to be scrapped.
The scrap procedure including the financial evaluation will need to be followed as per the Joint DTE committee recommendation. In the event the Committee recommends that the equipment is not to be scrapped the reason as to why such action could not be taken must be recorded.
