if u secure 60 or 60+ marks in any paper it implies that you are exempted from that paper and no need to take the exam again even if you fail other papers of that particular Group.

Now your Doubt: If u get below 40 marks in one paper and absent for another paper of the same group it implies that you are not passed that particular group and as a result you have to appear all 4 papers again irrespective of absent or failure of earlier attempt.

get 60+ in any paper, and it will be exempt, irrespective of fact that whether you pass other 3 papers or not.
