What Is CGPA?

CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is a grading metric used by CBSE and most Indian universities to summarise academic performance on a 10-point scale instead of raw percentages. Because many jobs, scholarships and higher-study applications still ask for a percentage, students frequently need to convert their CGPA into a percentage and sometimes the other way round.

Worked Example

Suppose your CBSE Class 10 CGPA is 8.2. Using the official CBSE formula, Percentage = 8.2 × 9.5 = 77.9%. To go back, 77.9 ÷ 9.5 = 8.2 CGPA. If your university uses a different multiplier (say it multiplies by 10), set the custom factor above and the result updates instantly.

What is the difference between SGPA and CGPA?

SGPA (Semester Grade Point Average) is your grade average for a single semester. CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is the average across all completed semesters. You convert CGPA to percentage the same way once you have the cumulative figure.
