West Bengal State University, Draft Regulation for Post Graduate Examinations (under CBCS curriculum effective from July 2019), cl. 11.3: 'Let SGPA is X.y where X is the integer part and y the fractional part … PL = upper cutoff percentage of grade X, PU = lower cutoff percentage of grade X+1, PUU = upper cutoff percentage of grade X+1 … Then Equivalent Percentage is Peq=PL+ (PUU-PU)*0.y'. Example: 'For example for SGPA is 6.8: X=6, y=8, PL=54, PU=55, PUU=59, Peq=54+0.8*4=57.2'. Table II (Full Marks 100): O ≥80 =10; A+ 70–<80 =9; A 60–<70 =8; B+ 55–<60 =7; B 50–<55 =6; C 45–<50 =5; P 40–<45 =4; F <40.
WBSU's PG regulation uses a piecewise interpolation, not a multiplier. The integer part of the CGPA picks the grade band; the decimal part is spread across the width of the next band, starting from the top of the current band. Lookups (from Table II, integer cut-offs as in the official example): upper cut-offs 4→44, 5→49, 6→54, 7→59, 8→69, 9→79, 10→100; lower cut-offs 5→45, 6→50, 7→55, 8→60, 9→70, 10→80. Cross-check with cl. 11.5 (classification): CGPA 7.12 = first class (60%) → 59 + 9×0.12 = 60.08; CGPA 6.25 → 55%; CGPA 5.25 → 50% — all consistent. The function jumps at integer CGPAs (e.g. 6.99 → ~58.0, 7.00 → 59); the percentage-to-CGPA calculator inverts it exactly within each band and maps a percentage that falls in a gap between bands (e.g. 58.0–59.0) to the next whole CGPA. Ambiguities: grade 10's upper cut-off is taken as 100 (Table II only says M ≥ 80), which affects CGPAs 9.0–9.99; CGPA below 4 is undefined. The document is titled 'DRAFT' but is the one WBSU posts as its PG regulation. Does not apply to UG; UG students should use marks on their mark sheet.
