SGPA to Percentage: Your Quick Conversion Guide

Converting your Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) to a percentage is a common need for job applications, higher studies, or scholarships. While specific formulas can vary slightly between universities, the most widely accepted and straightforward method is:

SGPA × 10 = Equivalent Percentage

For example, if your SGPA is 8.5, your equivalent percentage would be 8.5 × 10 = 85%. An SGPA of 7.2 converts to 72%.

Important Notes: This multiplier (×10) is the standard approach used by many institutions like those following UGC guidelines in India. However, always confirm your specific university's official conversion formula if provided in your academic regulations or transcripts, as minor variations (like a different multiplier or offset) can sometimes exist. Using this simple SGPA × 10 calculation gives you a reliable and universally understood estimate of your academic performance.
