Mumbai University: the formula was withdrawn.
From 1 January 2026, CGPA/CGPI is converted from your actual marks, not a formula. Here is what the circular says, and a way to work out your figure.
What changed on 1 January 2026
A University of Mumbai Examination Section circular dated 1 January 2026, issued after a Board of Examination and Evaluation decision of 18 November 2025, replaced formula-based conversion. In short, it says:
- Only students who specifically ask for a conversion get one. The college does the conversion; the university issues a certificate only if a letter of conversion is requested.
- The conversion uses the student’s marks from all semesters (Sem I to Sem VI), and the actual percentage based on those marks is calculated.
- It applies to the relevant academic patterns (CBGS, CBSGS and so on) and batches.
- The earlier circulars Exam/Com/97 of 2018 and Exam/Result/157/2019 — the source of the widely quoted formulas — are repealed with immediate effect.

Who it is addressed to: university departments and colleges in Arts, Science, Commerce and Management, the Centre for Distance and Online Education and the sub-centres. Engineering and technology are not named. If you are an engineering student, ask your college which rule it applies before relying on any formula.
Work out your actual percentage
The circular asks for the percentage from your real marks. Add each semester’s total marks obtained and the maximum.
How it’s worked out: total marks obtained ÷ total maximum marks × 100, across every semester on your mark sheets.
Common questions
Can I still use 7.1 × CGPI + 11?
Not for a new conversion under this circular. That formula came from the earlier circulars, which the 1 January 2026 circular repeals. Conversions are now done from your actual marks.
Where do I get an official conversion?
Ask your college, which does the calculation. If you need a letter from the university, request one — the circular says it is issued on request.
