Every Ayurveda PG scholar knows the moment: the guide says "write your synopsis" — and the scholar realises that knowing the theory of research is not the same as knowing how to produce a research document.

This handbook bridges that gap. Section by section. Department by department. Error by error.

Written by a double gold medalist from IPGT&RA Jamnagar and two-decade PG research supervisor, this handbook provides:

— A section-by-section writing guide for all 14 sections of the Ayurveda PG synopsis, with clinical and non-clinical examples for every section
— A practical statistical test selection guide with decision tree and 6 complete ready-to-paste plan statements
— Annotated fill-in-the-blank templates and complete specimen synopses for clinical RCT, non-clinical pharmacognostic/HPTLC, and non-clinical textual study designs
— 29 named, graded, and illustrated errors (Critical/Major/Minor) with wrong examples and corrected versions
— A 65-point pre-submission self-audit checklist
— 8 standalone quick-reference appendices: submission checklist, statistical test card, IEC checklist, CTRI guide, Vancouver referencing guide, CPCSEA checklist, validated tools list, methodology glossary, Samhita citation reference, and 18-month timeline

For all Ayurveda PG departments — clinical and non-clinical. For MD and PhD scholars. Aligned with NCISM and RGUHS regulations.
