MAKAUT (Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology, West Bengal) official circular 'How to Calculate Percentage from Your Grade Point' — publishes the DGPA-to-percentage conversion table directly: GPA 6.25→55%, 6.75→60%, 7.25→65%, 7.75→70%, 8.25→75%, confirming % = (GPA − 0.75) × 10 across every row. Applies to GIST's MAKAUT-affiliated BCA and B.Sc IT programs specifically — NOT to its diploma engineering programs.
GENUINE MULTI-AFFILIATION SITUATION, third ICARE-run institution in this batch (after HIT and HIM). GIST's own Examination Cell page states explicitly it 'looks after the entire process of examinations... to meet the requirements of the WBSCT&VE&SD' (West Bengal State Council of Technical Education) — i.e., its core diploma engineering programs (Mechanical, Electrical, Civil, Computer Science and Technology) are WBSCT&VE&SD-affiliated, NOT MAKAUT. The MAKAUT list entry for this college (code 192) lists only BCA and B.Sc IT as MAKAUT-affiliated courses — the smaller part of its total offering. No dedicated CGPA-formula document found on GIST's own site. No autonomy claim found anywhere.
