Frequently Asked Questions
Q: When should I choose exclusive vs. inclusive calculation?
Choose 'exclusive' when you have a base price and need to add GST on top of it to determine the total billing value. Choose 'inclusive' when you have a final retail price and need to find out how much of that total represents the base product price and how much is the tax component.
Q: How is the GST split between CGST and SGST?
For local state sales (intra-state), the total GST is split equally (50-50) between the central government (CGST) and the state government (SGST).
Q: Does this calculator log or store my business transaction data?
No. All calculations are performed instantly using local JavaScript formulas in your browser. No financial numbers or transaction values are ever stored, logged, or sent to our servers.
