Basically students are given 10 for 91 and above, 9 for 81 and above, 8 for 71 and above and so on. You can multiply by 9.5 to get the percentage.

CGPA is Cumulative Grade Point Average. It is a Grading process usually applied for standardising measurements of various levels of performance in a course. Few Institutions give results in the form of percentages and few I stitutions give results in the form of marks. So CGPA is used to calculate the average of all these grade pointd for all semesters of a course. To convert CGPA into percentage, we multiply the CGPA with 9.5.
