How grading works at Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) — Engineering

SPPU's Engineering programmes (B.E./B.Tech, Faculty of Science & Technology) use an absolute grading system: your letter grade is set by fixed percentage cut-offs published in the university's own Rules and Regulations, not by how your class performs — there is no curve.

The scale runs from O down to F across seven graded bands, each a clean ten-point slice of your combined In-Semester and End-Semester marks: 90–100% for O, down through 40–49% for E, with anything below 40% graded F. To pass a Theory course you need at least 40% in the End-Semester exam and at least 40% overall (In-Semester plus End-Semester combined); Term Work, Practical, and Oral/Presentation heads each need at least 40% on their own.

Two administrative grades sit outside this marks-based scale and carry no grade points: FX (Detained — awarded for insufficient attendance or unsatisfactory Term Work performance, and bars the student from that semester's End-Semester exam for the course) and IC (Incomplete Course — absent for the exam but continuing in the course). Audit courses are graded separately as AC (Completed) or ACN (Not Completed) and are never counted toward grade point or CGPA.

How SPPU Engineering calculates SGPA and CGPA

SPPU reports a Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) for each semester and a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) across the whole programme, both credit-weighted:

  • SGPA is the weighted average of the grade points earned in every course, seminar, and project registered for that semester.
  • CGPA is the weighted average across all semesters completed so far — first through eighth semester for students admitted directly into First Year, or third through eighth for students admitted directly into Second Year.

Both figures are rounded to two decimal places. If you pass a previously failed course, or improve a course you'd already passed, the new grade replaces the earlier one in your SGPA/CGPA calculation — the rule doesn't specify keeping whichever grade is higher, only that the latest result supersedes the earlier one.

Repeats, detention, and year-to-year promotion (ATKT) at SPPU Engineering

Failing a course. An F grade must be cleared by re-appearing for the examination; End-Semester-only re-appearance retains your existing In-Semester marks, or (depending on whether the course falls in an Odd or Even semester) you may retake both components in that same type of semester. Project Work failed at any stage requires additional work as directed by the examiners before re-appearing.

Detention (FX). A student who doesn't meet the minimum attendance requirement, or performs unsatisfactorily in Term Work, is awarded FX for that course — barred from the End-Semester exam and required to re-register for the course. Neither an F nor an FX earns any credit for the course.

Promotion between years (ATKT — Allowed to Keep Term). To register for Second Year (3rd semester), a student needs at least 50% of First Year's total credits. Third Year (5th semester) requires at least 50% of Second Year's credits plus all of First Year's credits. Final Year (7th semester) requires at least 50% of Third Year's credits plus all of Second Year's credits.

What you need to graduate from SPPU Engineering

The Bachelor's degree (B.E./B.Tech) is awarded once a student earns all 170 credits of the programme and clears every mandatory non-credit course scheduled in its respective semester (Environmental Studies, Indian Constitution, Essence of Indian Traditional Knowledge, Financial Management, and any others introduced by the university or apex bodies from time to time).

SPPU's own Rules and Regulations state this completion requirement purely in credit-count terms — the source does not print a separate minimum-CGPA floor for degree completion.

Class of degree awarded at SPPU Engineering

SPPU awards a class of degree based on your final CGPA:

CGPAClass of the Degree Awarded
7.75 or moreFirst Class with Distinction
6.75 or more, less than 7.75First Class
6.25 or more, less than 6.75Higher Second Class
5.5 or more, less than 6.25Second Class

The university's own Rules and Regulations print the table only down to this point — no class or pass designation is stated for a CGPA below 5.5.

Frequently asked questions

Can I save my semesters and track my CGPA at SPPU?
Yes. After you calculate a semester's GPA, click "Save as semester" to add it to the built-in CGPA tracker, which then computes your cumulative GPA across every saved semester using the standard weighted formula (Σ SGPA × credits ÷ Σ credits). You can save semesters by course (full breakdown) or quick-add a past semester with just the SGPA and credit hours. Locking, renaming, and deleting saved semesters are all supported, and the tracker shows a running CGPA plus a trend arrow versus your previous semester.
How do I convert SGPA to CGPA at SPPU?
Your CGPA is the credit-weighted average of every semester's SGPA. The formula is: CGPA = (SGPA₁ × credits₁ + SGPA₂ × credits₂ + … + SGPAₙ × creditsₙ) ÷ (credits₁ + credits₂ + … + creditsₙ). On this page, add each semester to the CGPA tracker (either by course or as a quick SGPA + credit-hours entry) and the calculator runs the conversion for you on every save, edit, and delete — no manual arithmetic required.
Can I add past semester GPAs without entering every course?
Yes. On the My CGPA Tracker tab, click "Add semester" and choose the quick-add option. You enter just the SGPA and the credit hours for that semester — no course-by-course breakdown required. It works as a GPA calculator with previous semesters support, or as a GPA calculator without course details when you only remember the SGPA from your transcript. Quick-added and course-by-course semesters can be mixed freely; both contribute to your CGPA using the same credit-weighted formula.
Is my CGPA tracker data sent to your servers?
No. Your saved semesters are stored locally in your browser only — nothing is transmitted to GPAWise. A "Clear all tracker data" button is always available on the tracker tab to wipe the data on demand.
Is this Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) GPA calculator free?
Yes — GPAWise is completely free to use. There's no signup, no paywall, and your inputs stay in your browser.
What is the minimum passing grade at SPPU Engineering?

Below 40% marks in a course earns an F, worth 0 grade points — the lowest graded band on SPPU Engineering's scale. The lowest passing grade is E, awarded for 40%–49%.

How do you calculate CGPA at SPPU Engineering?

CGPA is the credit-weighted average of the grade points earned in every course across your programme — first through eighth semester for direct First Year admits, or third through eighth for direct Second Year admits — rounded to two decimal places. If you retake a course, the new grade replaces the earlier one in the calculation.

What happens if you get detained (FX) in a course at SPPU Engineering?

FX is awarded when a student doesn't meet the minimum attendance requirement, and/or performs unsatisfactorily in Term Work, and/or fails the Term Work head of a course. An FX bars you from that semester's End-Semester exam for the course, earns no credit, and requires you to re-register for the course.

How many credits do you need to graduate from SPPU Engineering?

170 credits across all eight semesters, plus every mandatory non-credit course (Environmental Studies, Indian Constitution, Essence of Indian Traditional Knowledge, Financial Management, and any others the university introduces). SPPU's Rules and Regulations don't print a separate minimum-CGPA requirement alongside this credit count.

What CGPA do you need for First Class with Distinction at SPPU Engineering?

A CGPA of 7.75 or higher earns First Class with Distinction. 6.75 up to 7.75 is First Class, 6.25 up to 6.75 is Higher Second Class, and 5.5 up to 6.25 is Second Class — SPPU's own table doesn't print a designation below 5.5 CGPA.

Does SPPU Engineering use relative (curved) grading?

No. SPPU Engineering uses absolute grading — fixed percentage cut-offs set by the university, applied directly to your own combined In-Semester and End-Semester marks, with no adjustment for how your class performed.
