Converting Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) percentage back to CGPA

Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) (New Delhi) officially converts CGPA to percentage with % = 5 + (CGPA × 10). This page inverts that formula so you can estimate the CGPA behind a known percentage. Enter your percentage above and the calculator solves for the CGPA on the 10-point scale.

Worked example

The official Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) formula is % = 5 + (CGPA × 10). Starting from a percentage of 55%, the formula reverses to a CGPA of about 5 on the 10-point scale. You can check this by running 5 through the forward Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) CGPA to percentage calculator — it returns 55%, confirming the two directions agree.

Why this is an estimate, not an official figure

A college issues your percentage from your actual CGPA, not the other way around — so reversing the formula recovers the CGPA that would produce that percentage. When both numbers appear on your grade card, always quote the official CGPA rather than this estimate.
