Quick answer
Percentage = (marks obtained ÷ total marks) × 100. For CBSE and many universities, percentage = CGPA × 9.5, so a CGPA of 8.2 equals 77.9%. To convert percentage back to CGPA, divide by 9.5. If your university publishes its own formula, use that on the application form.
Always check your university’s official conversion formula — if your marksheet or the notification gives one, that takes priority.
