What is GST? Why is it important to know?
GST or Goods and Services Tax is an indirect tax levied on the supply of goods and services. It was introduced in India in 2017 and in Bangladesh in 2019.
Importance of knowing GST:
- For Business: Proper tax payment, invoice creation, filing tax returns
- For Customers: Understanding actual product price, avoiding overcharging
- For Freelancers: Creating accurate bills for clients
GST Calculation Formula & Method
Basic GST Formula
GST Amount = (Base Price × GST Rate) ÷ 100 Total Price (including GST) = Base Price + GST Amount Base Price (excluding GST) = (Total Price × 100) ÷ (100 + GST Rate)
Example Calculations
Exclusive GST (Add GST to the price)
Suppose a product costs ₹1,000 and the GST rate is 18%.
- GST Amount = (1,000 × 18) ÷ 100 = ₹180
- Total Price (including GST) = 1,000 + 180 = ₹1,180
Inclusive GST (GST is included in the price)
Suppose the total price including GST is ₹1,180 and the GST rate is 18%.
- Base Price (excluding GST) = (1,180 × 100) ÷ (100 + 18) = ₹1,000
- GST Amount = 1,180 – 1,000 = ₹180
