Grading System for Programmes under Faculty of Management Studies:
The Faculty of Management Studies, Bharati Vidyapeeth (Deemed to be University), Pune
has suggested the use of a 10-point grading system for all programmes designed by its
Board of Studies.
The 10 point Grades and Grade Points according to the following table

Range of Marks (%) Grade Grade Point


80≤Marks≤100 O 10
70≤Marks≤80 A+ 9
60≤Marks≤70 A 8
55≤Marks≤60 B+ 7
50≤Marks≤55 B 6

40≤Marks≤50 C 5
Marks < 40 D 0

Standard of Passing:

For all courses, both UE and IA constitute separate heads of passing (HoP). In order to pass
in such courses and to earn the assigned credits, the learner must obtain a minimum grade
point of 5.0 (40% marks) at UE and also a minimum grade point of 5.0 (40% marks) at IA.

If learner fails in IA, the learner passes in the course provided, he/she obtains a
minimum 25% marks in IA and GPA for the course is at least 6.0 (50% in aggregate).
The GPA for a course will be calculated only if the learner passes at UE.

A student who fails at UE in a course has to reappear only at UE as backlog candidate


and clear the Head of Passing. Similarly, a student who fails in a course at IA he/she has
to reappear only at IA as backlog candidate and clear the Head of Passing to secure the
GPA required for passing.

The performance at UE and IA will be combined to obtain GPA (Grade Point Average)
for the course. The weights for performance at UE and IA shall be 70% and 30%
respectively.

GPA is calculated by adding the UE marks out of 70 and IA marks out of 30.The total
marks out of 100 are converted to grade point, which will be the GPA.

Formula to Calculate Grade Points (GP)

Suppose that „Max‟ is the maximum marks assigned for an examination or evaluation,
based on which GP will be computed. In order to determine the GP, Set x = Max/10 (since
we have adopted 10 point system). Then GP is calculated by the following formulas
Range of Marks Formula for the Grade Point

8x ≤ Marks≤10x 10

5.5x ≤ Marks≤8x Truncate (M/x) +2

4x ≤ Marks≤5.5x Truncate (M/x) +1

Two kinds of performance indicators, namely the Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA)
and the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) shall be computed at the end of each
term. The SGPA measures the cumulative performance of a learner in all the courses in a
particular semester, while the CGPA measures the cumulative performance in all the
courses since his/her enrollment. The CGPA of learner when he /she completes the program
is the final result of the learner.

The SGPA is calculated by the formula

SGPA= ∑Ck * GPk


, ,
∑Ck

Where, Ck is the Credit value assigned to a course and GPk is the GPA obtained by the
learner in the course. In the above, the sum is taken over all the courses that the learner has
undertaken for the study during the Semester, including those in which he/she might have
failed or those for which he/she remained absent. The SGPA shall be calculated up to two
decimal place accuracy.

The CGPA is calculated by the following formula where, Ck is the Credit value
assigned to a course and GPk is the GPA obtained by the learner in the course. In the
above, the sum is taken over all the courses that the learner has undertaken for the
study from the time of his/her enrollment and also during the semester for which
CGPA is calculated. The CGPA shall be calculated up to two decimal place
accuracy.

The formula to compute equivalent percentage marks for specified CGPA:

10 * CGPA-10 If 5.00 ≤ CGPA ≤ 6.00


5 * CGPA+20 If 6.00 ≤ CGPA ≤ 8.00
% marks (CGPA) 10 * CGPA-20 If 8.00 ≤ CGPA ≤ 9.00
20 * CGPA-110 If 9.00 ≤ CGPA ≤ 9.50
40 * CGPA-300 If 9.50 ≤ CGPA ≤ 10.00
Award of Honours:

A student who has completed the minimum credits specified for the programme shall
be declared to have passed in the programme. The final result will be in terms of
letter grade only and is based on the CGPA of all courses studied and passed.

The criteria for the award of honors are given below.

Range of CGPA Final Grade Performance Descriptor Equivalent Range of Marks (%)
9.5≤CGPA ≤10 O Outstanding 80≤Marks≤100
9.0≤CGPA ≤9.49 A+ Excellent 70≤Marks≤80
8.0≤CGPA ≤8.99 A Very Good 60≤Marks≤70
7.0≤CGPA ≤7.99 B+ Good 55≤Marks≤60
6.0≤CGPA ≤6.99 B Average 50≤Marks≤55
5.0≤CGPA ≤5.99 C Satisfactory 40≤Marks≤50

CGPA below 5.0 F Fail Marks below 40
