National Institute of Technology Durgapur (NIT Durgapur) — % → CGPA

Forward formula: % = (CGPA − 0.5) × 10Source: NIT Durgapur — 7-Scale Grade System, Ref. NITD/Acad/2019-20 (03-03-2020), Dean (Academic), effective from session 2019-20Status: verifiedLast verified: 2026-06-23 · NIT Durgapur uses Equivalent % marks = (CGPA − 0.5) × 10 (CGPA 8.5 → 80%); the same offset applies to the semester figure as (SGPA − 0.5) × 10. Note: NIT Durgapur does NOT use plain ×10 — the −0.5 offset is on the back of the grade card, and assuming ×10 overstates the percentage by 5 points. Grade scale: Ex=10 (90+), A=9, B=8, C=7, D=6, P=5, F/X=0; Distinction at CGPA ≥ 8.0, First Class ≥ 6.5.
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 National Institute of Technology Durgapur (NIT Durgapur) percentage back to CGPA

National Institute of Technology Durgapur (NIT Durgapur) (West Bengal) 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 National Institute of Technology Durgapur (NIT Durgapur) formula is % = (CGPA − 0.5) × 10. To go the other way, you rearrange it to solve for CGPA. Starting from a percentage of 80%, the formula reverses to a CGPA of about 8.5 on the 10-point scale. You can check this by running 8.5 through the forward National Institute of Technology Durgapur (NIT Durgapur) CGPA to percentage calculator — it returns 80%, 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.
