Source & verification

Alagappa University — Examination Manual (26.03.2024), 'Conversion of Marks to Grade Points and Letter Grade': 90–100 → 9.0–10.0 (O), 80–89 → 8.0–8.9 (D+), 75–79 → 7.5–7.9 (D), 70–74 → 7.0–7.4 (A+), 60–69 → 6.0–6.9 (A), 50–59 → 5.0–5.9 (B), 40–49 → 4.0–4.9 (C), 00–39 → 0.0 (U); CGPA = Σ(grade points × credits) ÷ Σcredits; '6.0 and above but below 6.5 A First Class'.

NO EXPLICIT CONVERSION RULE: the University's regulations never say 'percentage = CGPA × 10'. They map marks to grade points in bands whose ranges run parallel to marks ÷ 10 (90–100 → 9.0–10.0, 80–89 → 8.0–8.9, … 50–59 → 5.0–5.9), and class cut-offs line up the same way (CGPA 6.0 ↔ 60% First Class, 7.5 ↔ 75% Distinction). CGPA × 10 therefore gives the credit-weighted average percentage. STATUS 'verified' (DERIVED): the formula is derived from the University's own published grade-point table, not quoted from a conversion rule — show 'Derived from the official grade-point table' on the page with a 'confirm against your mark statement' disclaimer. The manual applies to University Departments, affiliated colleges and distance/online education; UG and PG tables are identical except the pass mark (40 UG / 50 PG). Classification: 9.0–10.0 First Class – Exemplary; 7.5–9.0 First Class with Distinction; 6.0–7.5 First Class; 5.0–6.0 Second Class; 4.0–5.0 Third Class (UG).
