Where you will need this percentage
Fresher drives of companies such as TCS, Wipro and Cognizant ask for 60% or an equivalent CGPA in graduation. Bank exams, government jobs and higher-study forms usually ask for a percentage too, even when your marksheet shows only CGPA. Keep the rule you used, because some forms ask for it.
Use your final CGPA for the whole degree, and the SGPA of a single semester only when a form asks for that semester. If you are still studying, most companies accept your CGPA up to the last declared result, and they check the final figure again at joining, so a backlog cleared later still matters.
