What Is Punjabi University's Official CGPA to Percentage Formula?
Punjabi University, Patiala, publishes its CGPA-to-percentage conversion directly in its programme ordinances. For the Four-Year B.Tech Programme (2018 admission batch onwards), the stated formula is Percentage of Marks = CGPA × 10. Worked example: a CGPA of 8.0 gives 80.00% (8.0 × 10).
This is a direct-multiplier formula rather than a deduction-based one (unlike some other technical universities that subtract a constant before multiplying by 10) — which makes Punjabi University's conversion simpler to compute, but always confirm the formula stated in your specific programme's ordinance, since it can vary from faculty to faculty.
Does the Formula Differ for Non-Engineering Programmes?
Possibly. The CGPA × 10 formula on this page is sourced from Punjabi University's B.Tech ordinance. Other faculties (Arts, Commerce, Sciences, postgraduate programmes) may publish their own conversion in their respective ordinance documents, which are not guaranteed to use the identical multiplier. Check your own faculty's ordinance or ask your examination branch before using this figure on an official application.
