Yes. OPC 43 grade cement can be used to make M20 grade concrete.It can be used to make concrete up to M30 Grade.See related link.
Nominal mixes are those proportioned by the volume of the main ingredients and usually written in order of the ingredients thus Cement:Sand: Coarse aggregate (stone, chippings). So a 1:3:6 is a nominal mix containing 1 volume of cement, 3 volumes of sand and 6 volumes of coarse aggregate. Gauge boxes are generally used to batch the ingredients. The problem with these types of mixes is that the quality of the concrete is entirely dependant on the quality of the materials. In other words, if you use the same gauge boxes to weigh ingredients from different sources, you will most likely have different concrete qualities. Designed mixes on the other hand are specified as a grade the producer of the concrete has to achieve usually in terms of compressive strength but may include other criteria (size of the stone, minimum amount of cement, flexural strength, air content etc). So a grade 30 concrete will be the same whether batched in Kansas City, Karachi, Kingston-Upon-Hull or Kinshasa

The ratio of cement, sand and crushed stone in M 25 grade concrete is 1:1:2.In this grade of concrete a compressive strength not less than 25 N/mm2 is achieved in 28 days.
Which Grade?
in a simple way it is the strength of concrete, which it can bear the loads of its specified grade ex C 25 grade can resist the weight of 25kn/m2 after 28days of 60% after 7 days.

For M10 (1:3:6) Grade of concrete cement bag consumed = 4.4 bags/cum M15(1:2:4) Grade of concrete cement bag consumed = 6.6 bag/cum M20(1:1.5:3) Grade of concrete cement bag consumed = 8.2 bag/cum
cemet: sand: Agg=1:1:2 (Nominal Mix) Above answer is not as per engineering standards. For concrete mixing ration in M30 grade concrete, the mix has to be designed after testing all the materials including water in labs. When you go for higher grade of concretes the mix has to be designed , it is the water to cement ratio which has to be monitered for higher grades of concrete

M20 - 6.20bags
Choose the grade of concrete & assume minimum water/cement ratio.Conduct some initial tests on the materials like cement, sand & metal(coarse aggregate).Tests like UNIT WEGHT, SPECIFIC GRAVITY,SIEVE ANALYSIS,SLUMP CONE TEST & COMPACTION FACTOR TEST. According to the obtained results do the mix design from IS CODE of IS800-10262 check for water cement ratio & calculate the quantity of cement, sand & coarse aggregate.
