Converting I.K. Gujral Punjab Technical University (IKGPTU / PTU) percentage back to CGPA

I.K. Gujral Punjab Technical University (IKGPTU / PTU) (Punjab) officially converts CGPA to percentage with % = CGPA × 10 (April/May 2020 session onwards). 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 I.K. Gujral Punjab Technical University (IKGPTU / PTU) formula is % = CGPA × 10 (April/May 2020 session onwards). 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 on the 10-point scale. You can check this by running 8 through the forward I.K. Gujral Punjab Technical University (IKGPTU / PTU) 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.
