CGPA Cut-offs for Placements
Most campus recruiters set a minimum academic score, commonly 60% or a CGPA between 6.0 and 7.5, together with rules on backlogs. The exact numbers change by company and year, so always read the job description.
Typical eligibility rules
- A minimum CGPA or percentage in graduation (often 6.0 to 7.0 CGPA or 60%).
- Minimum marks in Class 10 and Class 12 (often 60%).
- No active backlogs at the time of applying.
- A limit on gap years.
When a form asks for percentage
Convert with your university's rule, not the 9.5 rule, unless the form tells you which rule to use. Some companies write "CGPA × 9.5" or "CGPA × 10" on the form; follow that exactly.
Close to the cut-off?
If you are just below a cut-off with one formula and above it with your university's formula, use your university's formula and attach the conversion certificate.
