GOODS AND SERVICE TAX
GST is an Indirect Tax which has replaced many Indirect
Taxes in India.
The Goods and Service Tax Act was passed in the Parliament
on 29th March 2017. The Act came into effect on 1st July
2017.
Goods and services are divided into five different tax slabs
for collection of tax - 0%, 5%, 12%, 18% and 28%.
However, petroleum products, alcoholic drinks and
electricity are not taxed under GST
Different forms of GST collected by the government are:
State GST (SGST): It is collected by State Government
Central GST (CGST): It is collected by Central Government
Integrated GST (IGST): It is collected by Central
Government for inter-state transactions and imports
Union Territory GST (UTGST): It is collected by Union
Territory Government
GST Calculation Formula
GST Amount = ( Selling Price × GST% /100 )
Net Price = Selling Price + GST Amount
Ex. 1
MRP = Rs 12,000, Discount % = 30%, GST = 18%,
calculate amount of bill.
Ans.
Discount = 30% of 12,000
= (30/100) x 1200
= Rs 3600
Selling price (discounted value) = 12000 – 3600
= Rs 8400
GST Amount = selling price × gst% / 100
= 8400 × 18/100
= 84×18 = ₹1512
Amount of Bill = Selling Price + GST amount
= 8400 + 1512 = ₹9912
G. S. T calculation by IGST, CGST, AND SGST
C. G. S. T – ½ tax goes to central govt.
• if GST is 18% then its
calculated by 9% of selling price.
S. G. S. T- ½ tax goes to state Govt.
• if GST is 18% it is also
calculated by 9% of selling price.
G. S. T- whole tax goes to central Govt.
• if GST is 18% then it is calculated as
whole 18% of selling price.
CGST & SGST both are calculated for transaction
with in the state or intrastate given in the question.
IGST calculated for transactions between two
different states. Or interstate given in the question.
Ex-2
For the following transaction from Delhi to Jaipur, fill in the
blanks to find the amount of bill:
MRP = Rs 50,000, Discount % = 20%, GST = 28%
Discount =
Selling price (discounted value) =
CGST =
SGST =
IGST =
Amount of Bill =
Solution:
Given,
MRP = Rs 50,000, Discount % = 20%, GST = 28%
Now,
Discount = 20% of 50,000 = (20/100) x 50,000 = Rs 10,000
So,
Selling price (discounted value) = 50,000 – 10,000 = Rs 40,000
CGST = 0
SGST = 0
IGST = 28% of 40,000 = (28/100) x 40,000 = Rs 11,200
the amount of bill = Selling price + IGST
= 40,000 + 11,200
= Rs 51,200
Example -3
A is a dealer in Banaras (U.P.). he supplies goods/services worth
Rs. 8000 to a dealer B in Agra (U.P.). Dealer B, in turn, supplies
the same goods/services to dealer C in Patna (Bihar) at a profit of
Rs. 1200. Find the input and output taxes for the dealer C and
net tax payable by dealer B. under GST system; if the rate of GST
is 18% and C does not sell his goods/services further.
