It is suggested that on Linux, GPU be found with the command lspci | grep VGA. It works fine on Ubuntu but when I try to use the same on CentOS, it says lspci command is not found. How can I check for the GPU card on CentOS. And note that I'm not the administrator of the machine and I only use it remotely from command line. I intend to use the GPU as a GPGPU on that machine, but first I need to check if it even has one.
Have you tried to launch /sbin/lspci or /usr/sbin/lspci ?
This assumes you have proprietary drivers installed, but issue the following command...
nvidia-smi
The output should look similar to this:

Try lshw or lspci. They have to be installed if you don't have already.
Install lshw
sudo yum install lshw //CentOS
sudo apt-get install lshw // Ubuntu
Then run this
sudo lshw -C display
The output would look like this
*-display

Similarly, you can try lspci
lspci | grep VGA
The output would look like this
0b:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP102 [GeForce GTX 1080 Ti] (rev a1)
lspci should be in the package pciutils.
you could do this with dmidecode but as your not an admin you probably cant do this nor installing the pciutils package.
IF there is a Xorg on this system then it should be easy:
grep Graphics /var/log/Xorg.0.log
Well, if you use CUDA, it has a function to enumerate CUDA-capable devices on the system. Why not use that?
