IGNOU MSCPH Handwritten Assignment — All 20 MPH, MPHL and MPHE Codes, One Calendar-Year Cut-Off

What Lands on Your Doorstep for MSCPH

The parcel is physical and it is finished. Inside it are four things, and nothing beyond them is charged for separately.

• The written answer sheets, one bundle per course code, tied and kept apart so an MPH-012 set never gets mixed into an MPHE-027 set. Physics assignments run long because the questions are worked rather than argued: a single MPH-012 paper carries six numbered questions across a Part A and a Part B, most of them broken into lettered sub-parts worth five marks each, and the derivations, dispersion relations and numerical answers are copied out in full.
• An IGNOU-format front page for each code, filled in with enrolment number, programme, course code, course title, assignment code and study centre, and left blank where your signature and the submission date belong.
• A printed copy of the official question paper that the answers were written against, so an evaluator or a counter clerk can put the two side by side without you fetching anything.
• Nothing digital. No soft copy or PDF is sold. What is prepared here is the object the study centre collects.

The written pages follow what the MSCPH booklets themselves ask for rather than what a general assignment guide suggests. Both 2026 papers read for this page instruct the learner to write on foolscap size writing paper of a weight that is not very thin, to leave a four centimetre margin on the left, top and bottom of the sheet, and to set the enrolment number, name, address, course code, course title, assignment code and study centre at the top of the first page in that exact order. Those instructions are specific to the School of Sciences and they are not what most IGNOU-facing pages tell you.

Where the ₹320 Stops, and Where It Does Not

The rate is per subject and per code. A learner sitting the third semester with MPH-011, MPH-012, MPH-013, MPH-014 and one MPHE elective is buying five, at ₹320 each. Someone clearing a single backlog paper from an earlier cycle is buying one, at the same figure. There is no minimum order: one subject or fourteen, same rate.

Inside the price sit the writing itself, the paper and ink, the front page, the question-paper copy and the courier. Outside it sit two things worth naming plainly. The first is timing: delivery depends on your pin code and is confirmed for your order before you pay. No figure is promised on this page. The second is outcome. No claim is made about the marks any assignment will receive, about how an evaluator will assess it, or about whether it will be accepted. Assignment evaluation is entirely a matter for IGNOU.

That second boundary is not a formality on MSCPH in particular. The MPH papers are marked out of totals that differ by course, and each booklet prints its own pass threshold: MPH-012 is worth 100 marks with 40 needed to pass, while MPH-013 is worth 50 with 20 needed. Anything anyone tells you about a guaranteed score on a paper marked against a stated threshold by a person you have never met is not a claim they are in a position to make.

Reference File or Submission Copy: Reading the MSCPH Split

Two different products circulate under names that sound almost identical, and MSCPH learners lose money to the confusion more often than most, because the physics papers are long enough that a downloadable file looks like a real saving.

A solved assignment is a soft-copy reference file: model answers written out for one course code and one session, delivered as a PDF, meant to be read against the blocks while you draft your own version. A handwritten assignment is the physical object the university collects: answers set down by hand on paper, tied per course code, and handed in at the counter your booklet names. The first is study material. The second is the submission. Printing the first does not turn it into the second.

Scroll the table sideways on a narrow screen.

IGNOU settles the point in its own words on the papers themselves. The MPH-012 booklet directs that the complete assignment answer sheets containing Part A and Part B be submitted within the due date, that the sheets go to your Study Centre as per the schedule, and that answer sheets received after the due date shall not be accepted. Those instructions describe sheets being carried to a counter. They do not describe a file being emailed unless your Regional Centre has issued a separate notice saying so.

If a reference file is what you actually want, it is a separate purchase on a separate page. The MSCPH solved-assignment library, indexed by MPH course code, is the right place to look, and nothing on this listing is intended to send that search here.

Twenty MPH, MPHL and MPHE Codes, Semester by Semester

MSCPH is a two-year, four-semester programme of 72 credits, run by the School of Sciences and taught in English. The table below reproduces the course structure exactly as the IGNOU Common Prospectus for July 2026 prints it, with the semester grouping and credit weight intact. The credits were summed independently against the printed total rather than taken on trust: 16 in the first semester, 20 in the second, 20 in the third and 16 in the fourth, which reaches the 72 the prospectus states.

Scroll the table sideways on a narrow screen.

Two features of that numbering trip learners up. The first is that the sequence 009, 010 and 015 belongs to the MPHL laboratory courses, so there is no MPH-009, MPH-010 or MPH-015 theory paper anywhere in the programme, however often third-party code lists print one. The second is that the laboratory courses are not written work at all. MPHL-009 and MPHL-010 are conducted across the first and second semesters together, MPHL-015 sits in the third, and the prospectus states that attending laboratory courses at your Learner Support Centre is a compulsory requirement of the programme. Twelve of the 72 credits are earned in a laboratory, not on paper.

Why All Three MPHE Electives End Up on Your Record

MSCPH advertises a choice of electives, and the choice is narrower than it reads. The prospectus rule runs in two parts. In Semester 3 only one course may be taken, and only from MPHE-025 or MPHE-026. In Semester 4 exactly two must be taken from MPHE-025, MPHE-026 and MPHE-027, without repetition, and the elective already taken in Semester 3 cannot be taken again.

Work that through and the outcome is fixed. A learner who takes MPHE-025 in Semester 3 must take MPHE-026 and MPHE-027 in Semester 4. A learner who takes MPHE-026 in Semester 3 must take MPHE-025 and MPHE-027 in Semester 4. Either path ends with all three electives on the record. What the rule actually decides is sequence, not selection, and one code is affected asymmetrically: MPHE-027 Nanoscience is absent from the Semester 3 option pair, so it can only ever be taken in the fourth semester.

Scroll the table sideways on a narrow screen.

The practical consequence for an order is that an MSCPH learner will need a written set against every MPHE code eventually, and the only real question is which cycle each falls into. If you are also stocking reading material for those papers, the master’s-level shelves on this store are grouped by programme and the physics titles sit among the master’s-degree book shelves.

Six Places IGNOU’s Own MSCPH Papers Contradict Each Other

The following were found by reading IGNOU’s own documents against one another for this listing. They are set out because a learner who meets them mid-submission loses time, and because the honest position is to name them rather than smooth them over.

One Date, Not Two: The Calendar Year Printed on Your MPH Paper

Most IGNOU deadline advice describes a pair of dates, one for each admission cycle, and most of it is wrong for MSCPH. The School of Sciences does not run the MPH papers on a session. It runs them on a calendar year.

Both 2026 booklets carry the same line on the cover: valid from 1st January, 2026 to 31st December, 2026. Instruction seven inside each of them spells out what that means. If you fail the assignment, or fail to submit it by 31 December 2026, you need to obtain the assignment for the year 2027 and submit that instead. There is no second date on the paper, no July cut-off and no January cut-off. There is one window and one closing day, and the paper expires with the calendar.

Two consequences follow. The first is that the 31 March and 30 September pairing circulated for IGNOU assignments generally, and the 31 October and 30 April pairing used by the School of Management Studies, do not describe an MPH paper at all. The second is more urgent. Instruction eight on both booklets states that you cannot fill the examination form for a course until you have submitted that course’s assignment. On MSCPH the assignment is not only worth marks, it is a gate on the exam form. Assignments carry 30 per cent of the final course result and the term-end examination carries the remaining 70 per cent. On this programme a missed assignment can cost you the whole hundred, by keeping you out of the hall as well as off the mark sheet.

Regional Centres do issue their own extensions, and IGNOU has extended assignment deadlines centrally in past cycles. Programme structures, course codes, submission dates and rules change, and only ignou.ac.in and your Regional Centre can confirm the current position for your enrolment.

What MPH-012/TMA/2026 Tells You Before You Post It

The assignment code is a small string that carries three separate facts, and copying it wrongly onto a front page is one of the easier ways to have a set queried at the counter.

Take MPH-012/TMA/2026, printed on the Condensed Matter Physics booklet. The first segment is the course code, hyphenated, matching the code on your admission record. The middle segment, TMA, marks it as a Tutor Marked Assignment, the continuous-evaluation component rather than an examination paper. The third segment is a bare year. It is not a session name and it is not a span such as 2026-27. That single-year form is how the School of Sciences writes MSCPH assignment codes, and it is the visible signature of the calendar-year rule described above.

Set that against the other formats an IGNOU learner may have seen elsewhere. The School of Management Studies writes a session name into the string. The School of Humanities writes a two-year span. MSCPH does neither. If a paper you have been handed carries anything other than a plain four-digit year after TMA, it did not come from the MSCPH booklet for that year, and the questions inside it may not be the ones your evaluator is holding.

Every set prepared here is written against the code exactly as it appears on the booklet for the year you name, and the same string is written onto the front page so the two agree.

Your Own Hand, Rebuilt From a Photo

A physics assignment is unusually easy to spot as somebody else’s work, because the notation is as personal as the letters. How a learner forms a partial derivative, closes an integral sign, writes a vector arrow or lays out a matrix is habitual, and a set written in a neat but foreign hand reads as foreign.

Send a photo of a page you have written yourself and the handwritten set is matched to your handwriting at no extra charge. A page containing some worked mathematics is more useful than a page of prose, because it shows the symbols as well as the script. The matching is done before payment: a sample sheet is written and sent back to you first, and the full set is only begun once you have looked at it and said yes.

What makes a usable sample photo

Daylight, a flat surface and the whole sheet in frame. A page from an old notebook is ideal. Photographs taken at an angle, in shadow, or cropped to a few lines make the letterforms hard to read and the match correspondingly weaker. If the only thing to hand is prose, that still works; a second photo with a few equations on it simply sharpens the result.

English Medium, Older Cycles and Backlog Codes

MSCPH has a medium restriction that several IGNOU master’s programmes do not. The Common Prospectus records the medium of instruction for M.Sc. Physics as English, with no Hindi stream listed, and every 2026 MPH booklet read for this page is issued in English only. There is no Hindi MPH paper to order and no Hindi elective. That is worth knowing before you go looking for one.

The service covers all mediums IGNOU issues the TMA paper in, at the same price. On MSCPH that resolves to English, which is what the university issues.

Older cycles are a different matter and they are common on this programme, because a two-year structure spread over a four-year maximum duration leaves most learners carrying at least one paper across a boundary. Any session is accepted, current cycle or older, including backlog courses, at the same ₹320 per subject. One caution belongs with that. Because MSCPH papers expire on 31 December each year, a learner clearing a backlog is usually required to write against the current year’s booklet rather than the one from the year the course was first taken. The booklet says so directly. Confirm with your Study Centre which year’s paper they will accept before the set is written, and that year is what will be used.

Five Lines on WhatsApp and Nothing Further

Starting an order takes one message. Nothing beyond these five items is needed, and nothing sensitive is asked for.

1. Your course codes. The MPH, MPHL or MPHE codes exactly as they appear on your admission record or re-registration slip, for example MPH-011, MPH-012, MPH-013, MPH-014 and MPHE-025.
2. Your enrolment number. It goes on the front page of every set, and it is the first line the MSCPH booklets ask for.
3. The year on your paper. The four-digit year printed on the booklet cover, such as 2026. If you are unsure, say which cycle you are clearing and it will be checked against the live file.
4. Your study centre or Learner Support Centre code. This completes the front page.
5. A photo of your handwriting. One page, well lit, ideally with some working on it.

A delivery address is confirmed at the point of dispatch rather than collected up front. Delivery depends on your pin code and is confirmed for your order before you pay. No figure is promised on this page.

Once the Parcel Is Signed For

The work left to you is short, and it is deliberately left to you.

Check each bundle against the code printed on its front page, and check the assignment code on the paper against the one on your booklet. Then sign and date the declaration on each front page. You sign the declaration on the assignment cover page, so you should read and review the content before submitting it, and satisfy yourself that it represents your own understanding of the course. On a physics set that means reading the working, not only the final answers, because the sub-parts are marked individually and you should be able to account for what is on the sheet.

Submit at the Study Centre named on your record, keeping each course code separate as the booklets instruct, and hold on to the receipt. The MPH-012 booklet also advises retaining a copy of your answer sheets, which is easy advice to skip and awkward to have skipped if a bundle goes astray between the counter and the evaluator. Assignment status usually takes some weeks to appear against your enrolment number, and it is checked on IGNOU’s own student services rather than here.

What MSCPH Learners Add to the Same Parcel

Handwritten sets are rarely the only thing an M.Sc. Physics learner is buying in a given month, and the neighbouring shelves are worth knowing about, if only so you do not pay twice for the same thing in two formats.

For examination preparation rather than submission, MSCPH solved guess papers built from earlier MPH question papers are the closer fit, since the term-end paper carries the other seventy per cent; one already listed example is the MPH-002 guess paper on this store, catalogued under its older short code. Reference answers in soft copy for any programme are gathered in the course-wise solved-assignment hub, and the same material bound and posted is sold as a printed solved-assignment book covering any programme. Learners studying alongside a spouse or colleague on a different degree can browse every master’s programme assignment shelf or the wider set of guess papers for other master’s programmes.

MSCPH itself has no dissertation course in the structure above, so the project shelves are not part of a physics order. They are listed here only because learners carrying a second IGNOU registration ask: project reports supplied as soft copy and bound project copies posted out sit in their own sections.

What M.Sc. Physics Learners Ask Before They Pay

Which MPH and MPHE codes can be written for MSCPH?

All twenty in the programme structure: MPH-001 to MPH-008, MPH-011 to MPH-014, MPH-016, MPH-017, the MPHL-009, MPHL-010 and MPHL-015 laboratory courses where a written record is required, and the MPHE-025, MPHE-026 and MPHE-027 electives. Send the codes on your admission record and each is checked against the live booklet for the year you name.

Does an MSCPH assignment go on A4 or foolscap paper?

The 2026 MPH booklets instruct the learner to use only foolscap size writing paper, of a weight that is not very thin, with a four centimetre margin on the left, top and bottom. Much general IGNOU guidance and several Regional Centre notices specify A4 instead. The instruction printed on your own MPH booklet governs, and your Study Centre can tell you whether it is being applied strictly. Say which you have been told to use and the set is written on that.

What is the last date for the MSCPH assignment?

The 2026 MPH booklets are valid from 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2026 and print one cut-off, 31 December 2026. There is no separate July or January date on an MSCPH paper. If you miss it, the booklet directs you to obtain the 2027 assignment instead. Extensions are sometimes issued centrally or regionally, so confirm on ignou.ac.in before relying on the printed date.

Can I print an MSCPH solved assignment PDF and submit that?

A downloaded file is reading material for drafting your own answers. It does not become a submission by being printed. The MPH booklets describe answer sheets carried to a Study Centre by the due date, and typed or printed answers are commonly refused across IGNOU programmes unless a specific instruction permits them. If a physical set is what you need, that is what this page prepares.

What is the difference between an MSCPH solved assignment and a handwritten one?

A solved assignment is a soft-copy reference file of model answers for one MPH code and session. A handwritten assignment is the answers written by hand on paper and handed in at the counter. The first helps you write; the second is what you submit. They are separate products at separate prices, and only the second is sold here.

Will a downloaded MPH answer file be accepted at the study centre?

No assurance can be given either way, because acceptance rests with IGNOU. What the MPH-012 booklet does state is that the complete answer sheets containing Part A and Part B must reach your Study Centre by the due date and that sheets received later shall not be accepted. Nothing on this page implies a downloaded file satisfies that.

Are the MPHL laboratory courses covered by this order?

The three laboratory courses, MPHL-009, MPHL-010 and MPHL-015, are assessed through attendance and practical work at your Learner Support Centre, which the prospectus makes compulsory. Where your centre also requires a written record or a laboratory file for those codes, that written work can be prepared at the same ₹320 per subject. Attendance itself cannot be, and no one should offer it.

Why is MPH-012 worth 100 marks and MPH-013 only 50?

The mark total tracks the credit weight. MPH-012 Condensed Matter Physics is a four-credit course and its 2026 booklet carries 100 marks with 40 needed to pass. MPH-013 Optics is a two-credit course and its booklet carries 50 marks with 20 needed. The four-credit MPH papers also split into Part A and Part B; the two-credit papers run as a single numbered sequence.

Is MSCPH available in Hindi medium?

The Common Prospectus records the medium of instruction for M.Sc. Physics as English, and the 2026 MPH booklets are issued in English. There is no Hindi MPH paper to write against. The service covers all mediums IGNOU issues the TMA paper in, at the same price, which on this programme means English.

Can I order just one MPHE elective on its own?

Yes. There is no minimum order: one subject or fourteen, same rate. A single MPHE-027 Nanoscience paper is quoted at ₹320 exactly as a five-code semester set is quoted per code.

I am clearing a paper from an earlier cycle. Can an older MPH assignment still be written?

Any session is accepted, current cycle or older, including backlog courses, at the same ₹320 per subject. Note that MSCPH booklets expire on 31 December each year and instruct learners who missed the window to obtain the following year’s assignment, so your Study Centre may require the current paper rather than the original one. Confirm which year they will take and that is the paper used.

Which MPHE elective should I take in Semester 3?

The prospectus allows only MPHE-025 or MPHE-026 in Semester 3, and requires two of the three in Semester 4 without repeating the Semester 3 choice. Either route ends with all three on your record, so the decision affects order rather than content. MPHE-027 Nanoscience cannot be taken in Semester 3 at all. Your Regional Centre confirms what is available for your intake.

Does the handwriting genuinely resemble mine?

A sample sheet is written from your photo and sent to you before the full set is started, so you judge it rather than take a description on trust. Physics sets benefit from a sample that includes some working, since the way you form symbols matters as much as the way you form letters. Nothing is charged before you approve it.

Is any mark or acceptance guaranteed on the MSCPH set?

No claim is made about the marks any assignment will receive, about how an evaluator will assess it, or about whether it will be accepted. Assignment evaluation is entirely a matter for IGNOU. What is undertaken here is the physical work: the answers to the questions on the booklet governing your code, written by hand in the format that booklet asks for, tied per course and couriered.

Why are there two different MPH-013 files on ignou.ac.in?

Both the 2026 Optics booklet and a copy of it filed under a programme-prefixed name are live. The questions, cover page and instructions are identical, and both carry course code MPH-013 and assignment code MPH-013/TMA/2026. Only the internal Tutor Marked Assignment heading differs, with one file printing OPTICS and the other printing CLASSICAL ELECTRODYNAMICS. Write OPTICS as the course title, since that is the title the prospectus gives MPH-013.

What exactly do I send to start an MSCPH order?

Five things on WhatsApp: your MPH or MPHE codes, your enrolment number, the year printed on your booklet, your study centre code, and one photo of your handwriting. Delivery depends on your pin code and is confirmed for your order before you pay. No figure is promised on this page.

How This Page Was Put Together

Three sources sit behind this listing and they are kept separate on purpose, because they carry different weights.

The IGNOU Common Prospectus, July 2026 edition. Every course code, official title, credit value, semester placement, elective rule, medium and eligibility statement in the tables above is taken from section 3.56 of that document and from the programme summary table in the same edition. The 72-credit total was checked by summing the four semester blocks independently before the printed figure was accepted. Where the two parts of the prospectus disagree with each other, both readings are given in the notice above rather than one being chosen silently.

Live Tutor Marked Assignment booklets on ignou.ac.in. Two 2026 papers were opened and read in full for this listing: the MPH-012 Condensed Matter Physics booklet and the MPH-013 Optics booklet, together with the duplicate MPH-013 file noted above. The validity window, the single cut-off date, the assignment-code format, the mark totals and pass thresholds, the paper and margin instructions and the examination-form condition are read off those papers, not carried over from another programme. The MSCPH programme index on the assignment portal was checked separately and its stale state recorded. Current papers for every code are published through the IGNOU assignment download service, and ignou.ac.in remains the only authority on any of it.

The publisher’s own commercial terms. The ₹320 rate, the hard-copy-only format, the inclusion of courier, the free front page, the enclosed question paper, the handwriting match and the absence of a minimum order are Shri Chakradhar Publication’s own terms and are not IGNOU rules. They are stated as terms, not as university policy. Learners who would rather write the set themselves can work from the step-by-step method on the ignouproject.com handwritten assignment guide, which covers the same ground for a learner holding the pen. The same service for other programmes is grouped under the handwritten assignment hub for every other IGNOU programme.

Written and reviewed by BK Sahni, Founder, Shri Chakradhar Publication Pvt. Ltd. and ignouproject.com, who has guided 5,00,000 students till date. ORCID 0009-0005-8092-459X. Published 5 September 2026. Sourced against the Common Prospectus July 2026 and the 2026 MSCPH assignment booklets live on ignou.ac.in on that date. Next scheduled review: December 2026, ahead of the 31 December cut-off printed on the 2026 MPH papers, and again on release of the 2027 MSCPH booklets.
