Work out a single semester's GPA using Indian Institute of Technology Bombay's official grade points.
Your semester GPA covers one term. Your CGPA accumulates every term you have completed. A single strong semester lifts your CGPA only in proportion to its share of your total credits, which is exactly why recovering from a weak first year gets harder the further you go.
If you want to see how a planned semester moves your cumulative figure, use the CGPA calculator and enter your prior record.
| Grade | Points | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AP | 10.00 | Exceptional performance. Restricted grade: only in courses with more than 50 registered students, capped at 2% of course strength, never for projects or seminars. |
| AA | 10.00 | Outstanding |
| AB | 9.00 | Excellent |
| BB | 8.00 | Very good |
| BC | 7.00 | Good |
| CC | 6.00 | Average |
| CD | 5.00 | Below average |
| DD | 4.00 | Lowest passing grade |
| FR | 0.00 | Fail — must repeat the course |
| Code | How it is treated |
|---|---|
| DX | Fail due to attendance below the required minimum. Counts as zero, like FR. |
| FF | Fail with re-examination permitted (postgraduate rules). Counts as zero until cleared. |
| II | Incomplete placeholder — converted to a real grade after the semester-end re-examination. Excluded while it stands. |
| PP | Pass in a pass/fail course. Carries no grade points and is excluded from SPI/CPI. |
| NP | Not passed in a pass/fail course. Excluded from SPI/CPI, but the degree requires a PP. |
| AU | Audited course. Excluded entirely. |
| W | Withdrawn. Excluded from SPI/CPI. |
| DR | Position holder pending a decision. Excluded. |
