Yes, a 7.5 CGPA on a 10-point scale is generally considered equivalent to 70 - 75%, depending on your university's conversion method.

- UGC guideline: 7.5 CGPA × 9.5 = 71.25%
- Some universities: 7.5 CGPA × 10 = 75%

Most merit-based scholarships accept a 7.5 CGPA as meeting the minimum percentage requirement. However, exact eligibility can vary by university and scholarship program.
