BHU CGPA to Percentage Calculator
Banaras Hindu University uses a distinctive Percentage = 10 × CGPA − 4.5 rule — not a plain ×10 — printed on grade-card documentation for covered programmes. Enter your CGPA below for an instant, correctly-converted percentage.
BHU published conversion (B.Sc. syllabi / grade-card reverse): Percentage X = 10 × CGPA − 4.5 (CGPA truncated to 2 decimals)
How BHU CGPA converts to percentage
The official formula
BHU published conversion (B.Sc. syllabi / grade-card reverse): Percentage X = 10 × CGPA − 4.5 (CGPA truncated to 2 decimals). Applicable where BHU prints X = 10Y − 4.5 on the grade card / syllabus conversion clause. Do not substitute a generic ×10.
For example, a BHU CGPA of 7.5 converts to 70.50%.
Why university-specific pages matter
BHU is one of India's larger affiliating universities — its conversion shape is not interchangeable with CBSE's ×9.5 or a plain ×10. This page locks the calculator to BHU's published rule so you don't accidentally apply a neighbouring university's formula.
Other universities use a different formula
CGPA-to-percentage conversion is not standardised across India — each university publishes its own circular. The table below shows every formula this calculator supports, so you can double-check or switch if you need a different one.
Frequently asked questions
What is the BHU CGPA to percentage formula?
BHU published conversion (B.Sc. syllabi / grade-card reverse): Percentage X = 10 × CGPA − 4.5 (CGPA truncated to 2 decimals). Applicable where BHU prints X = 10Y − 4.5 on the grade card / syllabus conversion clause. Do not substitute a generic ×10.
Is this the official BHU formula?
Yes — it's taken from BHU's own published circular/regulations, not estimated from a generic multiplier. Using the wrong formula (for example, assuming a flat ×9.5 multiplier when your university uses an offset) can misstate your percentage by several points on official documents.
Does the same formula apply to both CGPA and SGPA?
Yes for BHU — the conversion is linear on the grade-point value itself. Use this page for a single semester's SGPA, or the companion CGPA page for your cumulative score.
How do I convert percentage back to grade points?
Switch to "Percentage → CGPA" mode above — it reverses the same BHU formula correctly, including undoing any offset.
Can I use this for other universities too?
Yes — use the "University / board" dropdown in the calculator to switch to another supported university, or enter your own custom multiplier if yours is not listed.
