What is Goods and Services Tax (GST)?

The Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a unified, destination-based indirect tax levied on the supply of most goods and services in India. Launched on July 1, 2017, it replaced a complex web of state and central taxes such as VAT, Service Tax, Central Excise, and Octroi. It aims to create a single common market and remove the cascading effect of double taxation.

GST Calculation Formula

The mathematical formula depends on whether you are adding or removing the tax:

Example Calculation

Suppose you buy a laptop for ₹50,000 (pre-tax) and the tax slab is 18%:

• GST Amount = 50,000 × (18 / 100) = ₹9,000
• Total Net Price = 50,000 + 9,000 = ₹59,000
• CGST = ₹4,500 (9%) and SGST = ₹4,500 (9%)
