What is the formula for CGPA to percentage in engineering courses?

 For engineering courses under SPPU, the official CGPA to percentage formula is the same as the general formula established by the university under the CBCS system:

Percentage=(CGPA0.75)×10\text{Percentage} = (\text{CGPA} - 0.75) \times 10

Key Details for Engineering Students

  1. Applicable Programs:

    • B.E., B.Tech, and other undergraduate engineering courses affiliated with SPPU.

  2. Reason for Subtracting 0.75:

    • Adjusts for baseline performance to better align the CGPA scale with traditional percentage marks.

    • Ensures accurate reflection of academic performance on official transcripts.

  3. Step-by-Step Example:

    • CGPA = 8.4

    • Subtract 0.75 → 8.4 – 0.75 = 7.65

    • Multiply by 10 → 7.65 × 10 = 76.5%

  4. Use of Decimals:

    • Full decimal value of CGPA should be used before multiplying.

    • Final percentage is typically rounded to two decimal places.

  5. Reference:

    • FE 2019 Rulebook

    • Circular No. 322/2020 issued by SPPU


Summary: For engineering courses, always use (CGPA – 0.75) × 10 to convert CGPA to percentage. This ensures alignment with SPPU’s official grading system and transcript reporting.
