Why CSIR-NET uploads get rejected
- File size over the limit — even 1 KB above the cap is auto-rejected by many portals.
- Wrong pixel dimensions or aspect ratio.
- Wrong file format (most portals want JPG/JPEG).
- Signature uploaded with a white box / paper background instead of clean ink.
- Old, blurry, or low-contrast photo, or wrong (non-white) background.
