Percentage to CGPA Calculator
Enter your percentage, get the equivalent CGPA on the 10-point scale — for CBSE, VTU, Anna University, JNTU and more.
Reverse Conversion, Same Underlying Formula
Every CGPA-to-percentage formula can run in reverse. Pick your university above (or enter a custom offset/multiplier) and the tool solves for the CGPA that would produce your percentage under that specific formula.
Quick Reference (CBSE ×9.5 Standard)
Percentage → CGPA
| Percentage | Equivalent CGPA |
|---|---|
| 50% | 5.26 |
| 60% | 6.32 |
| 70% | 7.37 |
| 75% | 7.89 |
| 80% | 8.42 |
| 85% | 8.95 |
| 90% | 9.47 |
| 95% | 10.00 |
Why the University Formula Matters Here Too
The same 75% marksheet converts to a materially different CGPA depending on which formula applies — 7.89 on the standard CBSE scale versus 8.25 on a VTU-style offset formula. If a form or eligibility cutoff specifies a CGPA threshold, using the wrong formula can make the difference between qualifying and not.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the percentage to CGPA formula?
It's the CGPA-to-percentage formula run backwards. For CBSE (percentage = CGPA × 9.5), that means CGPA = percentage ÷ 9.5. For offset-based formulas like VTU, it's CGPA = (percentage ÷ 10) + 0.75.
What CGPA is 75%?
On the CBSE ×9.5 scale: 75 ÷ 9.5 = 7.89 CGPA. On a VTU-style offset formula: (75 ÷ 10) + 0.75 = 8.25 CGPA. The two common formulas genuinely disagree by more than half a grade point — always confirm which one your institution actually uses.
What CGPA is 60%?
CBSE scale: 60 ÷ 9.5 = 6.32 CGPA.
Why would I need to convert percentage to CGPA?
Common cases: a form or portal asks specifically for CGPA and you only have your percentage marksheet, or you're comparing your marks against a CGPA-based eligibility cutoff for an exam, scholarship, or admission.
Is this conversion officially recognized?
No conversion in either direction is a universally 'official' credential — it's a widely used approximation. For anything requiring formal certification (some visa or immigration processes, some employers), request an official equivalency statement from your university or a recognized credential evaluation service.
