How Dr. Samuel George Institute of Engineering & Technology (Autonomous), Markapur converts percentage to CGPA

VERIFIED 2026-08-15 from the college's own SGIT-R25 regulations; formula stated verbatim in §19 immediately below the Award of Class table. || INTERNAL CONSISTENCY PASSES: (CGPA − 0.5) × 10 reduces to 10·GP − 5, mapping grade points onto mark-band midpoints (GP 10 → 95 against a ≥90 band; GP 9 → 85 against 84.5; GP 5 → 45 against 44.5). || FIRST-GENERATION AUTONOMOUS REGULATION, EFFECTIVE 2025-26 — the newest regulation verified in this batch, and it uses the −0.5 template. This further supports the generation hypothesis: every regulation dated 2022 or later read in this sweep uses (CGPA − 0.5) × 10, while both −0.75 instances (ANU R20, BVCEC BR20) are R20-era. || SIXTH COLLEGE WITH IDENTICAL CLAUSE WORDING — joining SRKR R23, AEC AR23, AMR-24, BVCITS BR23 and DNRCET DR24. All six share the same sentence, the same S/A/B/C/D/E grade table and the same 7.5/6.5/5.5/5.0 class bands. The JNTUK-region drafting template is now conclusively established. || DRAFTING RESIDUE: SGIT-R25 retains heavy references to 'the University', 'the Vice-Chancellor' and 'University external examinations' throughout (§17, §27), and §8(xv) even says Honors 'is introduced by the University' — inherited from the JNTUK template it was adapted from. This is residue, not evidence that JNTUK sets the conversion; the title page reads 'DR. SAMUEL GEORGE INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY (AUTONOMOUS), ACADEMIC REGULATIONS – SGIT R25'. Same pattern seen at AMR-24. || THE REGULATIONS PAGE IS PARTLY BROKEN: several R23 and R20 syllabus cells contain raw pasted URLs pointing at kits-anna.com (KITS Guntur, a different college) instead of proper links, and the M.Tech R19 regulations link is missing entirely. The SGIT-R25 links work correctly — cite only the R25 PDF. || THE CONTACT PAGE URL IS NOT WHAT THE NAVIGATION SAYS: the menu links to /contact-us/, but the live page is at /contact/. Contact data here is from /contact/. || PINCODE: the college's own contact page and the R25 title page both give 523320. The 523316 appearing on iCBSE, Zollege and Youth4work derives from an older postal address (Post Box No. 9, Markapur) and is wrong. || NO CONTROLLER OF EXAMINATIONS IS NAMED anywhere on the site; the Examination Cell pages list functions and members but the college still routes results through the JNTUK portal, consistent with autonomy having only just begun.

Which figure is authoritative?

A percentage printed on your transcript is the official figure. This reverses the college's own conversion, so the CGPA shown is an estimate — useful for checking a number, not for quoting as an official grade.

Source & verification

own — Dr. Samuel George Institute of Engineering & Technology (Autonomous), Academic Regulations SGIT-R25 for B.Tech (Regular-Fulltime), §19 Grading / Award of Class: 'CGPA to Percentage conversion Formula – (CGPA–0.5) x 10'

Applies to: B.Tech (Regular, 160 credits) admitted from AY 2025-26 onward and B.Tech (Lateral Entry, 120 credits) from AY 2026-27 onward, under SGIT-R25 — the institute's FIRST autonomous regulation. Grade scale (10-point absolute): S (Superior) = 10 (≥90), A (Excellent) = 9 (80-89), B (Very Good) = 8 (70-79), C (Good) = 7 (60-69), D (Average) = 6 (50-59), E (Pass) = 5 (40-49), F (Fail) = 0, Ab (Absent) = 0. Class is awarded on CGPA, not percentage: First Class with Distinction ≥ 7.5, First Class ≥ 6.5 < 7.5, Second Class ≥ 5.5 < 6.5, Pass Class ≥ 5.0 < 5.5. Non-credit audit courses are marked Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory and excluded from SGPA/CGPA/percentage; no class or division is awarded for the Honors programme. CRITICAL COHORT LIMIT — THIS FORMULA APPLIES TO ALMOST NOBODY YET. Only the 2025-26 intake is under SGIT-R25, and the first cohort under it graduates in 2029. EVERY current graduate and every student admitted before AY 2025-26 followed JNTU KAKINADA regulations R20 or R23, where the conversion is (CGPA − 0.75) × 10 — a 2.5-point difference. The college's own regulations page confirms this by listing JNTUK R23 and R20 alongside SGIT-R25, and its Examination Cell menu links to the JNTUK Results Portal rather than an institutional one. Check the regulation code on your hall ticket: SGIT-R25 uses this formula; R20 or R23 means JNTUK's — see the jntuk entry. For an authoritative figure contact the Principal, Dr. Y.
