Frequently Asked Questions

To add GST: GST Amount = Base Price × (GST Rate / 100); Total Price = Base Price + GST Amount. Example: Base price ₹1,000 with 18% GST → GST Amount = ₹180, Total = ₹1,180. To remove GST from an inclusive price: Base Price = Inclusive Price / (1 + Rate/100); GST Amount = Inclusive Price − Base Price. Example: ₹1,180 inclusive at 18% → Base = ₹1,000, GST = ₹180.
GST in India is divided into three components: (1) CGST (Central GST) — collected by the Central Government on intra-state transactions; (2) SGST (State GST) — collected by the State Government on intra-state transactions; (3) IGST (Integrated GST) — collected by the Central Government on inter-state transactions and imports. For intra-state: CGST = SGST = GST Rate / 2. For inter-state: IGST = full GST Rate. Example: 18% intra-state → 9% CGST + 9% SGST; 18% inter-state → 18% IGST.
India's GST system has 5 rate slabs: (1) 0% — Essential items: fresh fruits, vegetables, milk, unbranded flour (atta), education, health services; (2) 5% — Basic necessities: packaged food, sugar, tea, edible oils, economy class air tickets, rail travel; (3) 12% — Processed goods: ghee, butter, cheese, agarbatti, umbrellas, mobile chargers; (4) 18% — Standard rate: restaurant food, personal care products, electronics, mobile phones, hotel rooms ₹2,500–₹7,500/night; (5) 28% — Luxury/sin goods: automobiles, motorcycles, tobacco, carbonated beverages, 5-star hotels.
GST-exclusive price (also called 'base price' or 'price before tax') does NOT include GST. You add GST on top to get the final price. This is typically shown in B2B invoices. GST-inclusive price already includes GST in the listed amount. You need to reverse-calculate to find the original base price and the GST component. Example: if a restaurant menu lists ₹500 for a dish, the actual food price may be ₹423.73 with 18% GST = ₹76.27, totalling ₹500 inclusive.
