How to calculate 5% GST
To add 5% GST to a base price:
GST Amount = Base Price x 5% = Base Price x 0.05
Total Price = Base Price + GST Amount
To remove 5% GST from a GST-inclusive price:
Base Price = Total Price / 1.05
GST Amount = Total Price - Base Price
For intra-state supply, GST splits equally into CGST and SGST (each 2.5%). For inter-state supply, the full 5% applies as IGST.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate 5% GST on an amount?▾
To add 5% GST: multiply the base price by 0.05. For example, for a base price of Rs. 10,000, GST = Rs. 10,000 x 5% = Rs. 500. Total price = Rs. 10,500. This splits equally into CGST (Rs. 250) and SGST (Rs. 250) for intra-state, or IGST (Rs. 500) for inter-state.
How do I remove 5% GST from a GST-inclusive price?▾
To remove 5% GST from a GST-inclusive price, divide by 1.05. For example, if GST-inclusive price is Rs. 10,500, the base price = Rs. 10,500 / 1.05 = Rs. 10,000. GST component = Rs. 500.
