CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is scored on a 10-point scale in India. Converting it to a percentage depends on which formula your board or university uses:
For example, a 9 CGPA in percentage is 85.5% under CBSE and 90% under the university formula. That small difference matters for cut-offs and job applications, so always use the formula your institution recognises.

SGPA (Semester Grade Point Average) converts exactly the same way — multiply your SGPA by 9.5 (CBSE-style boards) or 10 (universities) to get your semester percentage. Just enter the SGPA in the calculator above.
Multiply your CGPA by 9.5 for CBSE (Class 10) or by 10 for most Indian universities. For example, a CGPA of 8.5 becomes 80.75% under CBSE and 85% under the university formula. The calculator above does this instantly.
CBSE's official formula is: Percentage = CGPA × 9.5. It applies to Class 10 CBSE results on the 10-point scale — so a 9.0 CGPA equals 85.5%.
Most Indian universities use Percentage = CGPA × 10. Some universities (like VTU and JNTU) publish their own conversion tables, so check your university's official circular for applications.
Divide your percentage by 9.5 (CBSE) or 10 (university). For example, 85% becomes 8.95 CGPA under CBSE and 8.5 under the university formula. Use the reverse mode in the calculator above.
Yes. SGPA uses the same formulas — multiply SGPA by 10 (or 9.5 for CBSE-style boards) to get your semester percentage. Enter your SGPA in the CGPA field above.
9 CGPA equals 85.5% under the CBSE formula (9 × 9.5) and 90% under the university formula (9 × 10). Check the ready-reckoner table above for more values.
