CGPA Calculator

Most Indian universities use a 10-point grading system where your CGPA is the weighted average of your SGPAs across all completed semesters. Instead of manually multiplying credits by grades for every subject, simply input your semester SGPAs into the calculator above for an instant result.

The conversion formula varies wildly by university. Many standard universities multiply CGPA by 9.5 (CBSE style), while others (like Mumbai University or VTU) use completely different formulas like (CGPA - 0.75) * 10. Our calculator above automatically applies the correct, official formula based on the university you select.

Generally, a CGPA above 8.0 on a 10-point scale is considered very good for B.Tech in India and clears the cutoff for almost all campus placements. A CGPA above 9.0 is excellent and competitive for top-tier product companies and MS programs abroad.

A 7.5 CGPA is a solid score and clears the minimum cutoff (usually 60% or 6.5 CGPA) for many mass recruiters and core engineering companies. However, for premium placements, you might want to use the tool above to calculate exactly what you need in your next semesters to push it past 8.0.

You cannot simply average your SGPAs. You must multiply each semester's SGPA by its total credits, sum these up, and divide by the total credits of all semesters combined. You can use the tool above to do this complex weighted math automatically.
