Source & verification

Mizoram University, School of Engineering & Technology — Regulations for the 4-year B.Tech. Programme (2015 batch onwards), clause 10: 'Equivalent Percentage = 10 × CGPA − 5 for CGPA up to 9; Equivalent Percentage = 15 × CGPA − 50 for CGPA above 9'

Mizoram University's B.Tech. regulation (School of Engineering & Technology, 2015 batch onwards) uses a two-part conversion, NOT a flat ×10: Equivalent Percentage = 10 × CGPA − 5 for CGPA up to 9, and 15 × CGPA − 50 for CGPA above 9. The two segments meet exactly at CGPA 9 (= 85%) and the upper segment reaches 100% at CGPA 10. So a plain ×10 overstates the percentage by 5 points across the normal range (CGPA 8 → 75%, not 80%). Classification by CGPA: ≥ 8 First Class with Distinction, 6.50–8 First Class, 5.00–6.50 Second Class, below 5.00 Fail. This formula is the one printed on the MZU grade card for inter-university comparison; it is stated in the B.Tech. regulation and may differ for other MZU programmes.
