VTU grading scheme
Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU) uses a 10-point CGPA on a Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS). Letter grades go from O (outstanding) to F (failure), each mapped to a number of grade points multiplied by the course credits.
VTU letter grade scale
| Grade | Grade points | Range |
|---|---|---|
| O | 10 | 90+ |
| A+ | 9 | 80–89 |
| A | 8 | 70–79 |
| B+ | 7 | 60–69 |
| B | 6 | 55–59 |
| C | 5 | 50–54 |
| P | 4 | 40–49 |
| F | 0 | < 40 |
Step-by-step
- Add a row for every completed VTU semester.
- Enter the SGPA from the VTU result and the credit hours for that semester (typically 21–28).
- Continue adding rows as you progress through the program.
- Read the cumulative CGPA at the bottom.
- Convert to a percentage with CGPA to percentage (India).
Worked example
A second-year VTU computer science student has SGPAs 8.6, 9.0, 8.8, 8.4 across four semesters with credits 24, 22, 26, 24. Cumulative CGPA = (8.6×24 + 9.0×22 + 8.8×26 + 8.4×24) ÷ (24 + 22 + 26 + 24) = (206.4 + 198 + 228.8 + 201.6) ÷ 96 = 834.8 ÷ 96 ≈ 8.7.
VTU OBE vs CBCS
VTU's OBE (Outcome Based Education) scheme launched in 2021 uses the same 10-point CGPA system as the older CBCS scheme. Course credits and grade boundaries differ slightly, but the SGPA / CGPA formulas are unchanged.
VTU result analysis tips
- VTU publishes results semester-wise; bookmark this calculator to update CGPA after each semester.
- Re-evaluations sometimes raise SGPA — recompute CGPA after the revaluation result.
- For 8th-semester project credits, use the published SGPA/credits exactly.
