Shivaji University CGPA to Percentage Calculator
Most websites give one formula for every Shivaji University programme. We read the university's own documents instead. One equation is published — but it sits in the Department of Technology's B.Tech rules, and the university-wide CBCS circulars do not publish any formula at all. This calculator follows what is actually written.
Choose your programme and type your CGPA.
If your statements of marks show the marks for each semester, this gives a real percentage rather than a conversion. Add one row per semester (or per year).
Fill in at least one row.
What Shivaji University has actually published
| Document | What it says about percentage | Covers |
|---|---|---|
| B.Tech Academic Rules and Regulations, Department of Technology (w.e.f. 2011-12), R.B.T. 12 | "Conversion of CGPA to percentage marks for CGPA ≥ 4.5 can be obtained using equations. Percentage marks = (CGPA x 10) – 7.5". Also: an equivalent certificate of CGPA to percentage is provided on demand after paying the prescribed fee. | The four-year B.Tech run by the university's own Department of Technology |
| Circular dated 19 November 2020 — 10-point scale, 40% passing | Marks-to-grade-point tables, SGPA and CGPA formulas and final letter grades. No CGPA-to-percentage formula. Its one percentage statement: "B+ is equivalent to 55% marks and B is equivalent to 50% marks." | All CBCS programmes, all faculties |
| Circular No. 00565, dated 19 March 2022 — 50% passing | Grade tables for 100, 250 and 350-mark heads, and final letter grades. No CGPA-to-percentage formula. A candidate graded below B+ whose aggregate marks are 55% or more is treated as B+. | Programmes with a 50% passing criterion |

Why other websites show (CGPA − 0.75) × 10
(CGPA − 0.75) × 10 and (CGPA × 10) − 7.5 are the same equation written two ways — a CGPA of 7.80 gives 70.5% either way. It is often labelled a "UGC formula". In the Shivaji University documents we found, it appears in exactly one place: the Department of Technology's B.Tech rules, which cite the AICTE Handbook 2011-12 for the table behind it.
So the number those websites give is right for Department of Technology B.Tech students. For a B.Com. or B.Sc. CGPA it is a rule borrowed from a different programme — the circulars that govern CBCS programmes do not adopt it. We are not claiming no such rule could exist anywhere; only that Shivaji University's own CBCS circulars do not contain one.
The equivalence table in the B.Tech rules
The Department of Technology rules print this table, "as per AICTE Handbook (2011-12)". The equation reproduces every row.
| CGPA | Equivalent | Division |
|---|---|---|
| 6.25 | 55% | |
| 6.75 | 60% | First Division starts here |
| 7.25 | 65% | First Division |
| 7.75 | 70% | First Division |
| 8.25 | 75% | First Division with Distinction starts here |
The same page words the divisions as "Ist Division with distinction : CGPA > 8.25 and above" and "Ist Division : CGPA > 6.75 and < 8.25", and the calculator reads them together with the table above (6.75 = 60%). Its Second Division line is misprinted in the published PDF ("CGPA > 6.75 and < 6.25"), so we do not state a Second Division range.
Letter grades by CGPA
40% passing scheme — circular of 19 November 2020, all CBCS programmes:

| 8.86 – 9.49 | A+ | Excellent |
| 7.86 – 8.85 | A | Very Good |

| 5.86 – 6.85 | B | Above Average |
| 4.86 – 5.85 | C | Average |
| 4.00 – 4.85 | P | Pass |
| 0.00 – 3.99 | F | Fail |
50% passing scheme — circular No. 00565 of 19 March 2022:
| CGPA range | Grade | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 9.50 – 10.00 | O | Outstanding |
| 8.86 – 9.49 | A+ | Excellent |
| 7.86 – 8.85 | A | Very Good |
| 6.86 – 7.85 | B+ | Good |
| 6.00 – 6.85 | B | Average |
| 0.00 – 5.99 | F | Fail |
Both circulars say SGPA and CGPA are rounded off to two decimal places.
If a form insists on a percentage
1. Use your real aggregate. If your statements of marks show marks, total marks obtained divided by total marks, times 100, is a genuine percentage — not a conversion. The second calculator above does exactly this.
2. Get the official certificate. The Department of Technology rules state that the university provides an equivalent certificate of CGPA to percentage on demand, after the prescribed fee. We have not verified today's procedure or fee — the university's examination section can confirm both.
3. On a resume, you rarely need to convert at all. Write your CGPA with its scale and your letter grade. A recruiter who needs a percentage will ask, and you will have one of the two answers above ready.

Is there an official CGPA to percentage formula for Shivaji University?
One published equation exists: Percentage marks = (CGPA × 10) − 7.5, for CGPA of 4.5 and above. It is in the Department of Technology's four-year B.Tech rules (w.e.f. 2011-12). The university's CBCS circulars of November 2020 and March 2022, which cover other programmes, give grades but no CGPA-to-percentage formula.
Is (CGPA − 0.75) × 10 correct for Shivaji University?
It is numerically identical to the Department of Technology equation, (CGPA × 10) − 7.5. Whether it applies to your programme is the real question: the university-wide CBCS circulars do not adopt it.
What percentage is a B+ grade at Shivaji University?
The circular of 19 November 2020 states that B+ is equivalent to 55% marks and B is equivalent to 50% marks.
How do I get a CGPA to percentage conversion certificate?
The Department of Technology rules state that an equivalent certificate of CGPA to percentage is provided to a student on demand after paying the prescribed fee. We have not verified the current procedure or fee; the university's examination section can confirm them.
