Joint Session of Parliament is called when a Bill is passed by one House and rejected by the other House and in case where the amendment proposed to a Bill in one House is rejected by other House and also in case the other House sits on a Bill without taking any action for six months.

It is the President who calls a Joint Session of both the houses – Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. The Joint Session is presided over by the Speaker of Lok Sabha. The decision taken in the Joint Session is final if it receives the approval of the majority present.
