How to Calculate SGPA and CGPA in KTU (2024 Scheme) — With Formula
Learn how KTU calculates SGPA and CGPA under the 2024 scheme, with the exact formula, a worked example, and a free calculator.
Your SGPA and CGPA decide your KTU degree classification, so it helps to understand exactly how they're calculated. Here's the formula with a worked example.
KTU grade points
KTU assigns grade points to letter grades (for example S = 10, A+ = 9, A = 8.5, and so on, down to the pass grade). Each subject also carries a credit value.
SGPA formula
SGPA = Σ (Credit × Grade Point) ÷ Σ Credits (for one semester)
Worked example
| Subject | Credits | Grade Point | Credit × GP | |--------|--------:|------------:|------------:| | Maths | 4 | 9 | 36 | | Physics| 3 | 8 | 24 | | Coding | 3 | 7 | 21 | | Total | 10 | | 81 |
SGPA = 81 ÷ 10 = 8.1
CGPA formula
CGPA = Σ (SGPA × Semester Credits) ÷ Σ Total Credits (across all semesters)
CGPA to percentage
KTU commonly uses: Percentage = (CGPA − 0.5) × 10. So a CGPA of 8.0 ≈ 75%.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How is SGPA calculated in KTU?
- SGPA in KTU is the sum of (credit x grade point) for all subjects in a semester, divided by the total credits of that semester. For example, if you score grade points 9, 8 and 7 in 4, 3 and 3 credit courses, SGPA = (4x9 + 3x8 + 3x7) / 10 = 8.1.
- How is CGPA calculated in KTU?
- CGPA is the credit-weighted average of all your SGPAs across completed semesters: CGPA = sum(SGPA x semester credits) / total credits across all semesters.
- How do I convert KTU CGPA to percentage?
- KTU commonly uses the formula Percentage = (CGPA - 0.5) x 10. For example, a CGPA of 8.0 converts to roughly 75%.
