Why CGPA is multiplied to 9.5 for percentage calculation?

CGPA is multiplied with 9.5 as the Board has analyzed the last five year CBSE result 2025 and calculated the average marks of all candidates who scored between 91 and 100. That average turned out to be close to 95 marks. Since the equivalent Grade Point for the 91-100 band (A1 grade) of marks is 10, it then divided the average result of 95 by 10. The result is 9.5.

The board has also disclaimed that the percentage calculation is only an approximation and not exact percentage.

CBSE CGPA to Percentage Formula Explained

To understand CBSE CGPA to Percentage calculator formula better let’s take an example:

How to calculate CBSE CGPA from marks?

For instance, to calculate CGPA from marks, a student has scored the following grade points (Subject-wise):

Subject 1 – 10

Subject 2 – 10

Subject 3 – 7

Subject 4 – 9.5

Subject 5 – 8

So, now the sum of the Grade Points (GP) will be : 10+10+7+9.5+8 = 44.5

Dividing the sum with 5 will be 44.5 / 5 = 8.9

So, 8.9 is the CGPA of the student.

Now, the students can calculate the approximate percentage by multiplying the CGPA by 9.5

that is, 8.9 x 9.5 = 84.55%

So, the approximate percentage obtained by a student is 84.55%.
