Convert your CGPA directly to raw marks to fill out university entrance or government job recruitment forms.
Explore raw obtained marks calculations for CGPA scores near 8.40
When filling out application forms for competitive examinations (UPSC, SSC CGL, IBPS banking recruitment) or applying for private sector jobs, candidates are required to input their obtained marks and maximum marks rather than just CGPA. Since Indian universities award grades rather than marks, converting your CGPA to raw marks is an essential step.
To estimate raw obtained marks, first calculate your percentage using the standard multiplier (typically 9.5). Then convert this percentage into absolute marks based on your total maximum course marks:
Obtained Marks = ((CGPA × Multiplier) / 100) × Maximum Marks
Many government recruitment databases use automated score verification algorithms configured for percentage or marks cutoffs. This tool ensures you declare mathematically accurate values.
Refer to this lookup table to find equivalent obtained marks out of 1000 for standard CGPA scores using the UGC 9.5 multiplier:

Yes, our calculator includes a configurable multiplier setting. Change it to 10.0 or other values based on your university guidelines.
Yes, maximum marks entered should represent the cumulative maximum (theory + practical + internals) to compute correct obtained marks.
