Why There Is No Single Official CGPA-to-Percent Formula
AICTE-linked and many affiliating universities popularised percentage ≈ CGPA × 9.5. Other boards use × 10, a table of ranges, or a formula that changes by graduating year.
Using the wrong multiplier can misstate eligibility for jobs, scholarships, and postgraduate cut-offs. Always prefer the conversion printed on the marksheet or circular.
How Hemiley Converts CGPA
You enter CGPA and choose 9.5, 10, or a custom factor. The tool multiplies them. It does not look up a university by name.
Values above 100 percent are still shown if the product exceeds 100 so you can spot a mismatched scale or multiplier.
