Official answers regarding Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University grading ordinances.
AKTU SGPA is calculated by multiplying each course credit by the grade point earned (on AKTU’s 10-point scale: A+ = 10, A = 9, B+ = 8, B = 7, C = 6, D = 5, E = 4, F = 0), summing these weighted points across all theory, practical, and sessional subjects, and dividing by total semester credits: SGPA = Σ(Credit × Grade Point) / Σ(Credits).
AKTU CGPA is the cumulative credit-weighted average across all completed semesters. Each semester’s SGPA is multiplied by that semester’s official credits, and the sum of products is divided by total cumulative credits: CGPA = Σ(SGPA_i × Credits_i) / Σ(Credits_i).
As per official AKTU examination ordinances, the equivalent percentage of marks is obtained by multiplying the CGPA (or SGPA) by 10: Percentage (%) = CGPA × 10. For example, a CGPA of 8.25 equals 82.5%.
In AKTU, the minimum passing grade is "E" (Grade Point 4), which corresponds to 40% marks in both external theory examinations and cumulative subject totals. Any score below 40% results in grade "F" (Grade Point 0) and is considered a carry-over / fail.
To earn First Division with Distinction at AKTU, a student must secure a cumulative CGPA of 7.50 or higher and complete the degree program within the standard stipulated duration (4 years for regular B.Tech) without any carry-over papers in the final transcript.
When you clear a carry-over paper in subsequent attempts, the new grade point replaces the previous "F" grade point in the semester SGPA and the cumulative CGPA is updated accordingly.
