Hello student,

Hope you are doing well, here's your answer.

Yes, Maintaining a decent CGPA of 8.0 or above is necessary as there are many fields where CGPA filtering is used. Maintaining 8.0 CGPA Or above is necessary because of the minimum criterion that is set by most of the companies during the placement session. 8.0 CGPA is the most likely CGPA required by many companies.

Hope this will help you.

All the best!!
