10-point CGPA to a 4.0 GPA, band by band.

Maps a 10-point CGPA onto the 4.0 scale using the band correspondence evaluators typically apply, and shows the naive division alongside it so you can see how much they differ.

Inputs

The formula used

GPA ≈ band correspondence from a 10-point CGPA

Evaluators map band to band rather than dividing, because a 6.0 CGPA is a pass in a 10-point system and a 2.4 GPA is a warning in a 4.0 one. The two scales are not linear transforms of each other.

No reliable single formula exists between these scales. For an application, use the receiving institution's table or a credential evaluator — not this page, and not division.

Why dividing by 2.5 is wrong.

Dividing a 10-point CGPA by 2.5 assumes both scales start at zero and rise identically, but they do not. A 5.0 CGPA is a bare pass in most Indian systems, while the 2.0 GPA it converts to sits at the academic-standing boundary in the US — different meanings for the same relative position. Band mapping preserves standing; division preserves only arithmetic.

Questions about cgpa to gpa

Do US universities accept a converted CGPA?
Most prefer the original CGPA with the institution's grading key, and many recompute it themselves. Where they require a converted figure they will name the evaluator to use.
Why does WES give a different number?
Because evaluators weight by credits and by the grading distribution of your specific institution, which a band table cannot see. Their figure is the one that counts.
Is a 4.0 GPA the same as a 10 CGPA?
Only in the sense that both are the maximum. A 10 CGPA is exceptionally rare in most Indian systems while a 4.0 GPA, though also rare, is more commonly approached — the distributions differ.

A calculator handles the arithmetic. It cannot teach you the method.

If the number is not the part you are stuck on, that is what the service is for — a specialist who explains the working, not just the answer.

Grade point values, rounding rules and academic standing thresholds are set by your institution and vary widely. Nothing here is an official record of your standing.
