About the 10-point CGPA scale

• CGPA = Σ(grade points × credits) ÷ Σ(credits), out of 10.
• Grade points run from 10 (top) down to 0 (fail).
• Percentage = CGPA × 9.5 (common CBSE/university formula).
• SGPA vs CGPA: SGPA is one semester; CGPA combines all of them.

The 10-point CGPA scale is widely used by CBSE, AICTE and most Indian universities, though grade-point bands and the percentage formula can vary by institution. Always check your university’s official conversion. Everything is calculated locally in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is CGPA calculated on the 10-point scale?

CGPA = Σ(grade points × credits) ÷ Σ(credits). Each subject’s grade points (0–10) are weighted by its credits, then divided by the total credits.

How do I convert CGPA to percentage?

The most common conversion (used by CBSE and many universities) is percentage = CGPA × 9.5. So a CGPA of 9.1 is about 86.45%. Some institutions use a different multiplier — check your university’s rule.

What is the difference between SGPA and CGPA?

SGPA (Semester Grade Point Average) is the weighted average for a single semester. CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) combines all semesters. This calculator works for either — just enter the subjects you want to average.

What are grade points?

On the 10-point scale, each grade maps to a grade point, typically 10 for the top grade down to 0 for a fail. Enter the grade points your institution awards for each subject.

Will this match my official result exactly?

Not always. Universities differ in their grade-point bands, credit weights and percentage formula. Use your institution’s official scheme for the authoritative figure.
