About
The CGPA to Percentage Calculator converts cumulative grade point averages into percentage scores on both common scales. On the 10.0 scale widely used in India and South Asia, the conversion uses multipliers of 9.5 or 10, depending on the university's convention. On the 4.0 scale common in the US and Canada, CGPA is divided by 4.0 and multiplied by 100. Many employers, graduate programs, and scholarship committees ask for a percentage alongside the CGPA, so this tool provides a quick estimate while reminding you to confirm the exact formula your institution uses.
Frequently asked questions
Which multiplier should I use for a 10-point CGPA?
Many universities use 9.5 (as in the CBSE formula) or 10. Check your institution's official conversion table — the correct multiplier varies.
Is the percentage the same as my transcript grade?
Not necessarily. Institutions may apply their own conversion rules. Use this as an estimate and confirm the official value with your university.
