NAAC Binary & MBGL Readiness Studio

A screening-grade tool for the National Assessment and Accreditation Council's (NAAC) Binary Accreditation and Maturity-Based Graded Levels (MBGL). Frame your pathway, self-score your readiness, and see your evidence gaps, not an official NAAC score, and not a substitute for one.

Screening-grade self-assessment

NAAC's official Binary Accreditation Framework and Maturity-Based Graded Levels manuals had not been publicly finalized as of 29 August 2026. This tool reflects RAYSolute's own readiness framework, not an official NAAC scoring instrument.

How this studio works

Five modules, all in your browser

Self-service screening you complete yourself, not a delivered diagnostic. Nothing you enter is sent anywhere unless you submit the Request Access form near the bottom of this page.

1

Institution passport

Institution type, cycle status, state, programmes offered, and whether you have at least one graduated batch, the eligibility floor NAAC has stated for accreditation.

2

Pathway chooser

Choose Binary Accreditation only, Binary then Maturity-Based Graded Levels (MBGL), or direct MBGL entry for legacy A / A+ / A++ grade holders. Get a Go, Conditional Go, or No-Go with one plain-language reason.

3

Ten-attribute self-assessment

Self-score your maturity across NAAC's ten attributes, curriculum, faculty, infrastructure, finance, teaching-learning, governance, student outcomes, research and innovation, sustainability, and extended engagement, on a four-point scale.

4

Evidence readiness flags

Flag whether you have a clear, verifiable digital source, AISHE data, exam and result records, Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) minutes, and finance records, for the areas most likely to face a documentary check.

5

Trajectory and action list

Directional MBGL trajectory guidance and a 90-day evidence-readiness action list, built from your weakest self-scored areas.

Where this studio stops

What this studio does not do

This is a browser-based screening tool you complete yourself. It does not do the following, and a scoped RAYSolute engagement does.

1

Predict your actual NAAC score or outcome

This tool never computes or predicts a numeric NAAC score, a Binary Accreditation result, or a specific Maturity-Based Graded Levels (MBGL) Level. NAAC's official weights and criteria are not yet public.

2

Verify your evidence

It does not check your AISHE data, exam and result records, IQAC minutes, or finance records against NAAC's portal. You self-score here; a full engagement verifies.

3

Draft your Self-Study Report (SSR)

Preparing the Self-Study Report (SSR) itself, and responding to NAAC's Data Validation and Verification (DVV) queries, is separate specialist work.

4

Confirm your specific eligibility or transition rules

Cycle-specific and institution-type-specific eligibility rules should be confirmed directly with NAAC; this tool applies general, publicly stated principles only.

5

Replace a scoped RAYSolute engagement

For a defended readiness diagnostic tied to your actual evidence base, contact RAYSolute for a scoped engagement.

Before you rely on this score

NAAC's official Binary Accreditation Framework and Maturity-Based Graded Levels manuals had not been publicly finalized as of 29 August 2026. This tool reflects RAYSolute's own readiness framework, not an official NAAC scoring instrument.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions before using this studio

Answers below match the FAQPage schema embedded on this page so AI assistants can surface them directly.

Is this NAAC's official Binary Accreditation Framework or MBGL score?

No. The National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) had not publicly finalized its official Binary Accreditation Framework or Maturity-Based Graded Levels (MBGL) manuals as of 29 August 2026. This tool reflects RAYSolute's own readiness framework, a self-scored planning checklist, not an official NAAC scoring instrument or a prediction of your actual result.

Does this use AI?

No. This studio is a structured self-assessment and rules-based checklist built on RAYSolute's own methodology. It runs entirely in your browser using simple scoring logic, not an AI or machine learning system of any kind.

Can this tell me whether I will pass Binary Accreditation or reach a specific MBGL Level?

No. This tool never predicts an actual NAAC outcome. It reflects your own self-scored inputs back to you as directional Go, Conditional Go or No-Go pathway guidance and a ten-attribute maturity self-assessment, so you can see where your evidence base is strong or weak before you engage NAAC's real process.

How is my data handled?

Your institution passport, pathway and self-assessment inputs stay in your browser session and are not sent anywhere unless you submit the Request Access form below. If you submit that form, the details you provide are sent to RAYSolute so we can follow up on a scoped NAAC readiness engagement.

What is the difference between Binary Accreditation and Maturity-Based Graded Levels (MBGL)?

Binary Accreditation is NAAC's first-tier pass or fail gate: an institution is either Accredited or Not Accredited. Maturity-Based Graded Levels (MBGL) is a separate, optional second tier for institutions that clear Binary Accreditation, running from Level 1 to Level 5. Levels 1 to 4 sit under the Committee's Institutions of National Excellence track, and Level 5 is reserved for Institutions of Global Excellence for Multi-Disciplinary Research and Education. This two-tier structure was confirmed through a University Grants Commission (UGC) press release on 27 January 2024, followed by NAAC notices dated 29 June 2024, 10 February 2025 and 2 September 2025.

Ready for a defended readiness diagnostic?

This studio reflects your own self-scored inputs back to you. For a scoped NAAC readiness engagement with evidence verification specific to your institution, contact Aurobindo Saxena, Founder and CEO of RAYSolute.
