How Dadi Institute of Engineering & Technology (Autonomous), NH-16, Anakapalle converts CGPA to percentage

VERIFIED 2026-08-15 from the college's own DR23 regulations, read in full; formula stated at §19. || FOURTH JNTU-GV COLLEGE IN FOUR ROWS. The regulation's own letterhead reads 'Permanently affiliated to JNTU GV'. Every directory except collegedunia still says JNTUK — careers360, campusoption, targetadmission and shiksha are all stale. || THE 'DR' PREFIX IS A CLEAN INSTITUTIONAL MARKER, consistent with the prefix diagnostic: DR23 = Dadi Regulation 2023, and it appears in exam timetable titles ('II B.Tech I Semester Mid-I Aug 2026 DR 23 Time Table') as well as the regulation itself. The inherited documents are plainly R16/R19/R20 with no prefix — the diagnostic is now five-for-five across consecutive rows. || THIS COLLEGE'S EXAM CELL IS THE STRONGEST EVIDENCE YET FOR THE COHORT-WARNING PATTERN. As of April 2026 DIET was simultaneously running supplementary examinations under R16, R19 and R20 while teaching DR23 — four live generations, three of which use a different constant from the one on this page. Any calculator page for DIET must lead with the regulation-code check, not the formula. || THE DOCUMENT IS A JNTUK-TEMPLATE ADOPTION with light localisation: 'the University' survives throughout, final authority still rests with 'the Vice-Chancellor' at §26, and §17 still refers to 'University external examinations' despite the college conducting its own. Two genuine edits: the mid-term objective paper may be conducted 'either online or offline', with an unusually detailed offline invigilation protocol (objective paper collected after 20 minutes, students not permitted to leave, then the descriptive paper distributed); and summer regular courses may be offered 'on a fast-track mode' to clear backlogs, which most template adopters omit. || SECTION NUMBERING IS BROKEN after §22 — the document has two sections numbered 23 (Transitory Regulations and Minimum Instruction Days), so the final section is numbered 26 rather than 27. || NAAC 'A' GRADE, CYCLE II. UGC 2(f) AND 12(B). Triple ISO certification: 9001:2015, 14001:2015 and 45001:2018. NBA-accredited for CSE, ECE and EEE. NAAC grade conflict in directories: targetadmission and collegedunia say 'B+', which is the older Cycle-I grade; the current grade is 'A', confirmed on the regulation letterhead and the college's NAAC section. || FOUNDED 2006 by Sri Dadi Veerabhadra Rao — academician, former minister and opposition leader of the AP State Legislative Council — under the SARADA EDUCATIONAL TRUST. Part of the Dadi Group of Institutions. || RANKED 12th among AP engineering colleges and 4th for infrastructure in the Times of India Engineering Survey 2024; #172 for B.Tech by TOI; ARIIA Band performer; IIC 4-star. || SIX DEPARTMENTS: Civil, EEE, ECE, CSE, CSDM (CSE-Data Science & Machine learning grouping) and MBA, plus H&BS. Also MCA, M.Tech and a Diploma stream under SBTET with its own separate calendar. || A JNTU-GV NOMINEE SITS ON THE EXAMINATION COMMITTEE — Dr. K. Sri Kumar, Professor of EEE at JNTU-GV, is listed as 'University Nominee JNTUGV Vizianagaram'. Useful confirmation of the affiliation and of active autonomous status. || THE HOMEPAGE HAS BROKEN LOCAL-FILE LINKS: several 2026 timetable entries point at 'file:///C:/Users/dilip/Downloads/...' — a developer's local machine path published live. Cosmetic, but those links are dead for every visitor.
