percentage to CGPA

Biju Patnaik University of Technology (BPUT) — % → CGPA

Forward formula: % = (CGPA − 0.5) × 10Source: Biju Patnaik University of Technology — official Notice No. BPUT/1717 dated 16-05-2012 (per the 18th Academic Council, 07-04-2012, and 18th Board of Management, 17-04-2012, in partial modification of Notice No. 358 dated 02-02-2012): 'Equivalent Percentage of Mark = (CGPA − 0.50) × 10'Status: verifiedLast verified: 2026-06-23 · Biju Patnaik University of Technology follows a seven-point grading system on a base of 10 and, per its academic regulations, does NOT award marks or a class/division to a student at the semester or degree level. Its official Notice No. BPUT/1717 (16-05-2012) gives the conversion as Equivalent Percentage of Marks = (CGPA − 0.50) × 10 (CGPA 8.0 → 75%), to be used at the discretion of the concerned organisation or individual. This is the same −0.5 offset family as JNTU Hyderabad; note it is NOT a plain ×10 — using ×10 overstates the percentage by 5 points. The figure is an external equivalence aid, not a class determinant.
This reverses the official CGPA→% formula. A percentage on a transcript is the authoritative figure; the back-calculated CGPA is an estimate. Always confirm with your university.

Converting Biju Patnaik University of Technology (BPUT) percentage back to CGPA

Biju Patnaik University of Technology (BPUT) (Odisha) officially converts CGPA to percentage with % = (CGPA − 0.5) × 10. This page inverts that formula so you can estimate the CGPA behind a known percentage — useful when a scholarship form, job portal or foreign application asks for CGPA but your marksheet only shows a percentage. Enter your percentage above and the calculator solves for the CGPA on the 10-point scale.

Worked example

The official Biju Patnaik University of Technology (BPUT) formula is % = (CGPA − 0.5) × 10. To go the other way, you rearrange it to solve for CGPA. Starting from a percentage of 75%, the formula reverses to a CGPA of about 8 on the 10-point scale. You can check this by running 8 through the forward Biju Patnaik University of Technology (BPUT) CGPA to percentage calculator — it returns 75%, confirming the two directions agree.

Why this is an estimate, not an official figure

A university issues your percentage from your actual CGPA, not the other way around — so reversing the formula recovers the CGPA that would produce that percentage. It matches in almost every case, but rounding on your transcript (for example a percentage printed to one decimal place) can shift the back-calculated CGPA slightly. When both numbers appear on your grade card, always quote the official CGPA rather than this estimate.
