What are the differences between a provisional certificate and a degree certificate in Periyar University Tamil Nadu?

Arunima MukherjeeB.E in Mechanical Engineering, Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India

Like any other university, Periyar University, Tamil Nadu issues provisional certificates to students until convocation happens. Students who need proof of degree in between this period can apply and get a provisional certificate. It is a stopgap arrangement. Once the convocation is over, Periyar University starts issuing the degree certificate and the provisional certificate becomes redundant.
