Official CGPA to Percentage Formula for Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu
The most widely used conversion across Indian universities follows the official UGC CBCS 10-point grading guidelines:
Standard UGC CBCS CGPA to Percentage Formula:
Percentage (%) = (CGPA − 0.75) × 10
Note: Some universities use CGPA × 10, CGPA × 9.5 or (CGPA − 0.5) × 10 instead. Always check your university's official regulation before submitting forms or applications.
The formula subtracts 0.75 from your CGPA and multiplies the result by 10, converting the 10-point CGPA scale into an equivalent percentage out of 100. For example, a CGPA of 8.0 converts as (8.0 − 0.75) × 10 = 72.5%. While this is the standard UGC equivalence used by most Indian universities, some institutions apply CGPA × 10, CGPA × 9.5 or (CGPA − 0.5) × 10, so always confirm the official regulation of your specific university before submitting applications.
How to Convert CGPA to Percentage: Step-by-Step Guide
- Step 1 — Find your CGPA: Locate the final CGPA on your marksheet or university website, e.g.
8.0. - Step 2 — Confirm your university's rule: Check your university's official academic regulation or examination circular for the exact CGPA to percentage formula — most Indian universities follow the UGC CBCS standard.
- Step 3 — Apply the formula: For the standard UGC rule,
(8.0 − 0.75) × 10 = 72.5%. If your university uses a different factor, substitute it the same way. - Step 4 — SGPA to CGPA: If you only have semester SGPAs, aggregate them by credits first — your CGPA is the credit-weighted average of all semesters.
Use the Semester Aggregator tab on any university page to combine semesters into a single CGPA before converting.
