Himachal Pradesh University (HPU)'s own 'Regulations 2022 Onwards, Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS) for Post-Graduate (PG) Classes,' hosted on hpuniv.ac.in, gives a full absolute-grading table: 90 to <95% marks -> Grade Point 9.5; 80 to <85% -> GP 8.5; 55 to <60% -> GP 6.0; 40 to <50% -> GP 5.0, etc. In every band, the Grade Point equals the upper-bound percentage of that band divided by 10, implying Percentage is approximately CGPA x 10, though HPU's document does not state this as an explicit formula sentence.
GOVERNMENT COLLEGE — one of Himachal Pradesh's 5 UGC-autonomous colleges (all government; HP has zero private autonomous colleges of any kind). Formula is DERIVED from HPU's grade-point table, not stated explicitly — same caveat as Vallabh Govt. College Mandi and Govt. College Dharamshala. Note that Solan district also hosts several private engineering colleges (Green Hills Engineering College, L.R. Institute of Engineering & Technology, IITT College of Engineering) affiliated to HPTU rather than HPU — those are separate institutions from this one and not on the UGC autonomous-colleges list.
