GST (Goods and Service Tax) Calculation

GST is Comprehensive, Destination-based tax levied on the supply of goods and Service in India. It has replaced a variety of indirect taxes like VAT, Service Tax, Excise Duty, and other, simplifying the tax structure.  

1. Types of GST in India :

 a. CGST (Central GST) - Collected by the central government on intra-state Sales.

b. SGST (State GST) - Collected by the state government on intra-state Sales.

c. IGST (Integrated GST) - Collected by the central government on inter-state Sales.

d. UTGST (Union Territory GST) - Similar to SGST, but for Union territories like Delhi, Chandigarh, etc.


2. GST Calculation Formula:

    For Intra-State Sales (CGST + SGST)

                    Total GST = Basic Price * (GST Rate) /100

                    Total Price = Base Price + Total GST

For Inter-State Sales (IGST):

                  IGST = Base Price * (IGST Rate) / 100

                  Total Price = Base Price + IGST

3. Example Calculations :

    Scenario 1 (Intra-State Sale)

      a. Basic Price: Rs. 1000

      b. GST Rate: 18% (9% CGST + 9% SGST)

Calculations:

 a. CGST = 1000 * (9/100) = Rs. 90

 b. SGST = 1000 *(9/100) = Rs. 90

 c. Total GST = 90 +90 = Rs. 180

d. Total Price = 1000 +180 = Rs.1180


Scenario 2 (Inter-State Sale)

  a. Base Price: Rs. 100

 b. GST Rate (IGS): 18%


Calculations: 

 a. IGST = 1000 * (18/100)

B. Total Price = 1000 + 180 = Rs. 1180


4. Reverse GST Calculation (Extract GST from Total Price) 

To extract the GST amount from a total price:

                        GST Amount = Total Price * GST Rate /  200 + GST Rate

                        Base Price = Total Price - GST Amount

Example: 

  a. Total Price: Rs. 1180

  b. GST Rate: 18% 

                               GST Amount = 1180*18/100+18 

                                                     = 1180*18/118 =180

                              Base Price = 1180 - 180 = 1000

5. GST Slab in India (2025)

    a. 0% - Essential Items like fresh vegetables, grains

    b. 5% - Packaged food items, medicines.

   c. 12% - Processed Foods, Computers

   d. 18% - Most services, electronic.

   e. 28% - Luxury item, cars.
