India GST Calculation Methodology & Rules

How GST, Trade Discounts & Invoicing Work in India

Under the Indian Goods and Services Tax (GST) framework, understanding whether your quoted price is tax-exclusive or tax-inclusive, and ensuring that trade discounts reduce taxable value before tax is applied, ensures clean financial accounting and accurate invoice totals.

  1. 1

    Trade Discount Before GST

    On-invoice trade discounts are deducted from the gross value to establish the net taxable base: Taxable Value = Gross Value − Trade Discount.

  2. 2

    Exclusive GST (Forward Calculation)

    Tax is calculated directly on the taxable base: GST Amount = Taxable Value × (Rate / 100) and Invoice Total = Taxable Value + GST.

  3. 3

    Inclusive GST & Reverse GST (Reverse Extraction)

    Extract taxable base from a tax-inclusive sticker price: Taxable Value = Inclusive Amount ÷ (1 + Rate / 100) and GST = Inclusive − Taxable.

  4. 4

    Intra-State vs Inter-State Supply Split

    Supplies within the same state split GST equally into CGST (50%) and SGST (50%). Supplies across state borders attract a single IGST (100%).

Exclusive GST with 10% Discount Example

On a ₹10,000 item with 10% discount at 18% GST: Gross ₹10,000 − Disc ₹1,000 = Taxable ₹9,000. GST @ 18% = ₹1,620. Invoice Total = ₹10,620 (CGST ₹810 + SGST ₹810).

Reverse GST Extraction Example

On ₹11,800 inclusive at 18% GST: Base = ₹11,800 ÷ 1.18 = ₹10,000.00. Embedded GST = ₹1,800.00 (CGST ₹900.00 + SGST ₹900.00).
