GST formula
Adding GST: GST = Price × Rate ÷ 100; Total = Price + GST
Removing GST: Taxable value = Total × 100 ÷ (100 + Rate); GST = Total − Taxable value
Intra-state: CGST = SGST = GST ÷ 2 Inter-state: IGST = GST
Worked example
A laptop bag priced at ₹2,000 before GST at 18% attracts GST of ₹360, so the invoice total is ₹2,360. Sold within Maharashtra, that ₹360 is ₹180 CGST + ₹180 SGST. Sold to a buyer in Karnataka, it is ₹360 IGST. Going the other way, a GST-inclusive price of ₹1,050 at 5% has a taxable value of ₹1,000 and GST of ₹50.
