Understanding GST in India

Goods and Services Tax (GST) is an indirect tax used in India on the supply of goods and services. It is a comprehensive, multi-stage, destination-based tax: comprehensive because it has subsumed almost all the indirect taxes except a few state taxes.

Total = Price + GST

GST Inclusive

GST = Price - (Price * (100 / (100 + GST%)))
Net = Price - GST
