About the GTU (Gujarat Technological University) Grading System
GTU, which affiliates most engineering colleges in Gujarat, reports performance as CPI (Cumulative Performance Index) and CGPA (last four semesters). The official conversion for both is (value − 0.5) × 10. GTU explicitly publishes this in its academic regulations, so it is safe to use on resumes and applications.
Worked example: a CGPA of 8.0 converts to 75.00%. On the US 4.0 scale that's approximately 3.20 — though American universities will recalculate from your transcript rather than accept a converted figure.
When You Need the Percentage (and When You Don't)
You typically need the percentage figure for: Indian job applications and eligibility cutoffs (most companies state cutoffs in %), government exam forms, and some scholarship applications. You usually don't need it for US/Canada graduate applications — report the CGPA on its original scale and let the university convert. If an employer asks for an official conversion, GTU can issue a conversion or equivalence certificate through its examinations office.
