Since 22 September 2025, GST has two main rates — 5% and 18% — plus 40% for luxury and sin goods. Essentials like fresh food stay exempt.
To take GST out of a price, divide by (1 + rate): ₹10,000 ÷ 1.18 = ₹8,475.
How it’s calculated

The maths, in plain words

Adding GST

GST = price × rate. Total = price + GST. ₹1,000 at 18% → ₹180 GST → ₹1,180.

Removing GST

Price before GST = total ÷ (1 + rate). ₹1,180 at 18% → ₹1,180 ÷ 1.18 = ₹1,000.

CGST, SGST and IGST

Within a state, GST is split equally between the Centre (CGST) and the state (SGST). Across states it’s charged as one IGST.

What are the GST rates now?
Since 22 September 2025, GST has two main slabs: 5% for daily needs and 18% for most goods and services, plus 40% for luxury and sin goods. Essentials like fresh food are exempt, and gold is taxed at 3%.
What happened to 12% and 28%?
They were removed in the September 2025 overhaul. Most 12% items moved to 5%, most 28% items moved to 18%, and a few luxury items went to 40%.
How do I calculate GST from an inclusive price?
Divide the price by 1 plus the rate. For 18%, divide by 1.18: a ₹2,360 bill has ₹2,000 before GST and ₹360 of GST.
Is MRP inclusive of GST?
Yes. In India the MRP printed on a product includes all taxes, so a shop can’t add GST on top of it.
