Procedure to obtain transcripts:
Pre-requisites: a) Take all the available original documents with you in an envelope.You do not need to supply envelops for the universities that you are applying for. The Transcripts office will supply the envelops for you, b) Cash for DD, c)Writing Pen. You will make two trips for the transcript office to get the work done.

First Trip:
1) Decide on the number of universities that you are planning to apply  (add 2 to this number for backup - lets call this total number "N" )
2) Take a Demand Draft for "N x Fee for 1 set of Transcript + DD Commision charges"
(If I plan to apply for 7 universities, I would add 2 more for backup and if the fee for one set is Rs.200, then I would take a DD for Rs.1800+DD commision charges)
3)Demand Draft can be taken at SBI (State bank of India) bank branch located in the Anna University Main building. The bank closes by 4.30 pm and make sure that u give in the request for DD well in advance).
4)The Commission rate for the specified DD amount can be obtained from the chart/table listed in the bank premises.
5)After u have taken the DD go to the Controller of Examinations building (Closing time:5 pm). This is the tricky part. Note that this building is not situated in Anna University Campus.It is situated in an unexpected/unsuspecting location.You will be spending a great amount of time in locating the venue :)
6)Location of Controller of Examinations Building :
Come out the Anna University Campus.Do NOT cross the road.Turn right and walk along the Sardar Patel road (main road).Do NOT enter next campus (which is the Directorate of Technical Education Campus). Next you will see an iron gate and a path leading to a building at a distance (Which is what we are looking for). You will notice a security guard loitering around the place. Just go inside and ask someone in the building about the location of the "transcripts office".
7)Once you are at Transcripts Office, fill out the form given by the office staff (It will contain details like, your registration number,year of study,number of sets of transcripts you require, DD amount take,blah blah blah..). Handover the originals and the staff will handover an application/reference number for your request and you need to sign a register kept outside. Note down the application/reference number and the date of your application. The staff will ask you to collect the transcripts after 4 or 5 days.

Second Trip:
Required Materials: Application/Reference Number,glue stick,pen
1)Go the Transcripts office. Tell your Application/Reference Number.
2)The Staff will handover the requested number of duplicate transcripts in unsealed envelopes.
3)The staff will ask you to write on the envelopes the address of the universities that you are applying to. Write the address of your desired universities (Even if you have not made any on the universities, just write some arbitrary address which you can always mask with a white paper and re-write the actual university address later) and seal the envelopes using the glue stick.
4) Once you are done, the staff will hand over the originals to you.
5) Do not leave the place without checking whether you have received all the originals that you have submitted.

Happy Applying for Universities !!!
