What is CGPA?
CGPA stands for Cumulative Grade Points Average. It is the average of Grade Points obtained in all the subjects by a student, excluding the sixth additional subject. The grading system employed in CBSE Board Exam Results to measure the scholastic achievements of students is as follows:
| Marks Range |
Grades |
Grade Point |
| 91-100 |
A1 |
10 |
| 81-90 |
A2 |
9 |
| 71-80 |
B1 |

| 61-70 |
B2 |

| 51-60 |

As per the CBSE grading system, minimum qualifying grade for passing the board exam is D. Thus, students scoring grades E1 or E2 will have to sit for re-examination to pass in the failed subjects.
Calculating CGPA from Grade Points (GPs)
You can easily find out your CGPA from the subject grade points (GPs) obtained in the CBSE results. Add the GPs scored in 5 subjects excluding the additional subjects. Then, divide the sum total by 5 to give you the CGPA.
For example,
Let GPs scored by you in 5 subjects be:
Maths - 9
Science - 8
Social Science - 7.5
English - 9
Hindi - 7
Sum of the Grade Points (GPs) = 9+8+7.5+9+7 = 40.5
Thus, CGPA = 40.5 / 5 = 8.1
Formula to Calculate Percentage from CGPA
To find out percentage from CGPA, you simply have to multiply the CGPA with 9.5.
Why 9.5 is used in CGPA to Percentage formula?
This 9.5 is an average score obtained by CBSE toppers in previous years. Actually, the Board analysed the previous five years’ results and calculated the average marks of all applicants who scored between 91 and 100. That average came out to be nearly 95 points. As the corresponding Grade Point for the marks range 91-100 (A1 grade) is 10, 95 was divided by 10. Then the final average score was 9.5.
Thus, the three step procedure to find out percentage percentage from CGPA is as follows:
