About this tool
Gujarat Technological University publishes the equivalence Percentage = (CGPA - 0.5) x 10, which is the same as CGPA x 10 minus five. This converter applies that rule to a CGPA or CPI, returns the percentage to two decimals and shows the class band, which is the figure students quote on placement and higher study applications.

Frequently asked questions
Is the GTU rule the same as the VTU rule?
No. GTU deducts 0.5 grade points while the older VTU schemes deduct 0.75, so the same index converts to different percentages at the two universities.
What CGPA equals sixty percent?
A CGPA of 6.50, because 6.50 minus 0.5 multiplied by ten gives exactly sixty percent.
Does GTU issue an equivalence certificate?
Yes, the university publishes the conversion and the examination section can certify it for employers and foreign universities.
Can I convert an SPI with this tool?
Yes. The same equation applies, though official equivalence is quoted on the cumulative figure.
Is the same rule used for diploma programmes?
GTU applies the same equivalence across its diploma and degree programmes, though you should confirm against the result footer for your programme.
Why does my percentage look lower than expected?
The fixed deduction of 0.5 grade points removes five percentage points compared with a plain CGPA x 10 conversion, which is the rule GTU has notified.
