GST Calculation — How It Works

Adding GST (Forward Calculation)

GST Amount = Base Price × Rate ÷ 100
Total = Base Price + GST Amount

For intra-state: CGST = SGST = GST ÷ 2
For inter-state: Full amount as IGST

Removing GST (Reverse Calculation)

Base Price = Inclusive Amount ÷ (1 + Rate ÷ 100)
GST Amount = Inclusive Amount − Base Price

Use this when you know the MRP or invoice total and need to find the pre-tax price.

Input Tax Credit (ITC)

Net GST Payable = Output GST (on sales) − Eligible ITC (on purchases)

ITC cannot be claimed on blocked credits under Sec 17(5): personal vehicles, food, club memberships, construction.

Composition Scheme

Instead of regular GST, pay a flat % of turnover. Cannot claim ITC. Cannot make inter-state supplies. Eligible if turnover ≤ ₹1.5 Cr (goods) or ₹50L (services).

Frequently Asked Questions — GST

GST (Goods and Services Tax) is a unified indirect tax on the supply of goods and services across India. It replaced VAT, service tax, excise duty, and several other taxes from July 2017. GST is collected at each stage of the supply chain, with businesses claiming credit for tax paid on inputs (ITC), ensuring the final tax burden falls only on the end consumer.
For intra-state transactions (buyer and seller in same state), GST is split equally into CGST (Central GST) and SGST (State GST). For inter-state transactions, the full GST is charged as IGST (Integrated GST), which is later apportioned between the Centre and destination state. For example, at 18% GST on an intra-state sale: CGST = 9%, SGST = 9%. On an inter-state sale: IGST = 18%.
GST registration is mandatory if your annual turnover exceeds ₹40 lakh (goods) or ₹20 lakh (services). For special category states (North-East, J&K, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand), the threshold is ₹20 lakh (goods) and ₹10 lakh (services). Businesses making inter-state supplies, e-commerce sellers, and those liable to pay tax under reverse charge must register regardless of turnover.
ITC allows registered businesses to deduct the GST paid on business purchases from the GST collected on sales. Only the net amount is paid to the government. For example, if you collected ₹18,000 GST on sales and paid ₹12,000 GST on purchases, you pay only ₹6,000. ITC cannot be claimed on blocked credits under Section 17(5) such as personal motor vehicles, food, club memberships, and works contracts for immovable property.
The Composition Scheme suits small businesses with turnover under ₹1.5 crore (₹50 lakh for services) that sell mostly to end consumers (not other businesses). Benefits: lower tax rate, simpler compliance, quarterly filing. Drawbacks: cannot claim ITC, cannot make inter-state supplies, buyers cannot claim ITC on your supplies.
