Process to Calculate SGPA
The following are the process to calculate SGPA-
- One must know how many credit points they have for each topic.
- Once they determined the credit points for each course, then multiply the credit point total for each subject by the grade earned in those subjects.
- Add the items received.
- Divide the total obtained by summing the products of each topic by the total of all credits.
- The figure seen is SGPA.
How to convert SGPA to CGPA?
- To calculate the CGPA, first determine the average score of all subjects in each semester, i.e., SGPA.
- Then, add the semester SGPAs and divide the total by the number of semesters or sessions to get the CGPA for the academic year.
- For example:- If a student has an SGPA of 4 and 9 in both semesters, their CGPA would be-
1st college academic term CGPA = (SGPA of semester 1+ SGPA of semester 2)/2
= (4+9)/2
= 13/2
= 6.5 CGPA
SGPA to CGPA Calculator KTU
The KTU (APJ Abdul Kalam Technology University) SGPA to CGPA Calculator is as follows-
|
SGPA = Σ(Ci×GPi)/ΣCi |
Where,
Ci is the credit allocated to a course.
GPi is the grade point for that course.
SGPA to CGPA SPPU Formula
The famous Savitribai Phule Pune University's SGPA to CGPA calculator is as follows-
|
SGPA = (C1G1 + C2G2 + C3G4 + C4G4 + C5G5)/ (C1 + C2 +C3 + C4 + C5) |
Where,
C1, C2, C3, C4, C5 = Course Credits.
G12, G2, G3, G4, G5 = Course Grade Points
SGPA to CGPA Calculator VTU
Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU) employs the following method to determine SGPA for prospective students-
|
SGPA = Σ(Ci×Gi)/ΣCi |
Where,
Ci is the credit allocated to a course.
GPi is the grade point for that course.
SGPA to Percentage
In our education sector, an SGPA to % conversion tool is employed, which allows us to simply convert your SGPA into a percentage without performing any manual calculations. You may quickly convert SGPA to Percentage with our SGPA calculator.
The following are the steps to calculate SGPA to Percentage-
- First, compute the SGPA for each semester.
- Add the SGPAs of all the semesters..
- Divide the total of the SGPAs by the number of semesters.
- Divide SGPA by 10 and deduct 7.5 from the total [(SGPA * 10) - 7.5 = Percentage].
The following formula is used to calculate SGPA to Percentage-
(SGPA*10) - 7.5 = Percentage
For Example- Calculate the percentage for 4 Semesters i.e. 8, 5.6, 4.9, 6.3.
Ans- So the total SGPA for all Semesters = (8+5.6+4.9+6.3)/4
= 24.8/4
= 6.2

Percentage from SGPA
The following formula is used to calculate Percentage from SGPA-
(SGPA*10) - 7.5 = Percentage
= (6.2*10) - 7.5
= 62 - 7.5
= 54.5%
SGPA to CGPA to Percentage
Many institutes provide scores in the form of CGPA, but when applying to universities abroad, those grades must be in percentage form. The procedure for sgpa to cgpa conversion to percentage is as follows-
- We convert SGPA to CGPA.
- Then multiply the entire CGPA by 9.5 to get a percentage.
- For example- Calculate the percentage if the CGPA is 6.
The formula of Percentage- CGPA*9.5
= 6*9.5
= 57%
Therefore, 6 CGPA in percentage is 57%.
The following table gives details about the understanding of the conversion-
|
CGPA |
CGPA*9.5 |

|
8.5 |
8.5*9.5 |
80.75% |
|
9 |
9*9.5 |
85.5% |
Therefore, do not mistake SGPA or CGPA for the total percentage. However, at certain institutions and universities, the CGPA or percentages are assigned a grade letter.
The following table has examples-
