GST calculation — 2 types hoti hain
GST calculate karne ke do scenarios hote hain — aur dono alag formula use karte hain:
| Scenario | Formula | Example (18% GST) |
|---|---|---|
| GST add karna (exclusive) | Amount × (1 + rate/100) | ₹100 → ₹118 |
| GST nikalna (inclusive) | Amount × rate/(100+rate) | ₹118 → GST = ₹18 |
Common confusion
"GST inclusive" matlab GST already amount mein shaamil hai. "GST exclusive" matlab GST abhi add karni hai. Invoice banate waqt yeh clearly specify karein — customer ko confusion nahi honi chahiye.
Current GST slabs — 2026
- 0% — fresh milk, vegetables, fruits, books, education, individual health/life insurance
- 5% — everyday items: butter, cheese, namkeen, clothes up to ₹2,500, standalone restaurants
- 18% — standard rate: most services, electronics, small cars, bikes up to 350cc
- 40% — luxury/sin goods: large cars, SUVs, aerated sugary drinks
- Special: 3% gold jewellery; tobacco/pan masala 28% + cess (abhi ke liye)
CGST vs SGST vs IGST
Same state transaction mein 18% GST = 9% CGST + 9% SGST (dono alag line items invoice mein). Different state transaction mein 18% IGST (sirf ek line item).
