Article 100(3) of the Constitution of India stipulates that the quorum to constitute a meeting of either House of Parliament shall be one-tenth of the total number of members of the House. This means that for a valid sitting of the Rajya Sabha (or Lok Sabha), at least 1/10th of its total members must be present.
