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

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).
