Percentage to CGPA calculator

How to convert a percentage to CGPA

1. Choose the board or university whose rule you need under Board or university.
2. Type the percentage.
3. Read the CGPA. When it is not a round number, it is shown to two decimals, and the working shows the longer figure.

When you need this

Some forms give a limit in one form when your result is in the other: a college may ask for "60% or equivalent CGPA", or for a CGPA when your mark sheet shows marks. Working a rule backwards gives the CGPA that matches a percentage under that rule. Under CBSE's Class 10 rule (CGPA × 9.5), 60% is a CGPA of about 6.32; under JNTUH's ((CGPA − 0.5) × 10) it is 6.5; under VTU's 2015 to 2018 schemes ((CGPA − 0.75) × 10) it is 6.75. If the form gives its own conversion, follow the form.

The arithmetic

Every rule here has the form percentage = (CGPA − a) × b, so CGPA = percentage ÷ b + a. Under CBSE's rule a = 0 and b = 9.5: 85% ÷ 9.5 = 8.947…, which is 8.95 to two decimals. A rule that subtracts first cannot reach 100%: VTU's older rule stops at (10 − 0.75) × 10 = 92.5%, and GTU's and JNTUH's at 95%, so a higher percentage has no CGPA under them. CBSE's 9.5 rule stops at 95% too.

Worked example

A job notice asks for "a first class (60%) or equivalent CGPA". Priya graduated from Delhi University in 2024, where the rule is CGPA × 10, so the matching CGPA is 60 ÷ 10 = 6. Her friend from a JNTUH college, where the rule is (CGPA − 0.5) × 10, needs 60 ÷ 10 + 0.5 = 6.5.

CGPA rules from each board's and university's own document

Each rule in the calculator is copied from the document linked under it, with the date we read it. They are indicative: your board's or university's own document decides.

CBSE Class 10 (CCE grades, 2010 to 2017)

Para 1.3: the CGPA is given "excluding additional 6th subject", and "An indicative equivalence of Grade Point and percentage of marks can be computed as follows:" "Subject wise indicative percentage of marks = 9.5 x GP of the subject" and "Overall indicative percentage of marks = 9.5 x CGPA".

For Class 10 results given as grades and a CGPA, from 2010 to 2017. The CGPA on the result leaves out the additional sixth subject, and CBSE calls the percentage indicative.

Questions people ask

How do I convert a percentage to CGPA for CBSE?

Under CBSE's Class 10 rule from 2010 to 2017, divide the percentage by 9.5: 85% ÷ 9.5 = 8.95 (to two decimals). CBSE now gives marks, not a CGPA, so the rule is for those years' grades.

Why does the calculator say no CGPA gives my percentage?

Under some rules even a CGPA of 10 gives less than 100%: 95% under CBSE's × 9.5, 92.5% under VTU's 2015 to 2018 schemes, and 95% under GTU's and JNTUH's. A higher percentage has no CGPA under those rules.

Is percentage to CGPA the same everywhere?

No. Each university has its own rule, so the same percentage gives a different CGPA under each. Use the rule of the university that gave the result, or the one the form names.

Is anything I type saved?

No. The calculator runs in your browser, and nothing you type leaves your device.
