How to Use Our Easy GST Calculator
You don't need to remember GST formulas or calculate percentages manually.
-
Enter the amount: Type the product price, service charge or invoice amount in rupees.
-
Choose the calculation type: Select GST Exclusive to add tax or GST Inclusive to remove tax from an amount.
-
Select the GST percentage: Choose the applicable rate or enter a custom percentage.

For example, if a service costs ₹2,000 before GST and attracts 18% tax, the calculator will show ₹360 as GST and ₹2,360 as the final price.
How to Calculate GST Amount in India
GST is calculated as a percentage of the taxable value of goods or services. The calculation changes depending on whether the price already includes tax.
GST Exclusive Calculator – Add GST to a Price
Use this option when you know the original price but need to calculate the amount after tax.
Formula:
GST Amount = Original Price × GST Rate ÷ 100
Final Price = Original Price + GST Amount
Example:
Suppose you purchase a product priced at ₹5,000, excluding GST, and the applicable rate is 18%.
-
Original price: ₹5,000
-
GST at 18%: ₹900
-
Final price: ₹5,900
You pay ₹5,900, including GST.
GST Inclusive Calculator – Remove GST From a Price
Sometimes the amount printed on a bill already includes GST. You need to work backwards to find the original price.
Our GST inclusive calculator helps you separate the tax from the total amount.
Formula:
Original Price = GST Inclusive Price × 100 ÷ (100 + GST Rate)
GST Amount = GST Inclusive Price − Original Price
Example:
You receive a bill for ₹1,180, including 18% GST.
-
Total bill: ₹1,180
-
Price before GST: ₹1,000
-
GST included: ₹180
This calculation is useful when checking invoices, shopping bills or service charges.
GST Calculator India – Current GST Rates
India introduced a revised GST rate structure in September 2025, with two main rates of 5% and 18%, along with a special 40% rate for selected goods and services. Certain supplies have nil or exempt treatment, while specific categories retain other rates.
|
GST Rate |
General application |
|
0% / Nil |
Certain essential goods and specified supplies |
|
5% |
Many essential and commonly used taxable products |
|
18% |
Standard rate for many goods and services |
|
40% |
Selected goods and services subject to the special rate |
|
Other rates |
Specific categories such as certain precious-metal supplies |
The rate applicable to an item depends on its classification and the relevant GST notification.
Note: The older 12% and 28% general slabs were rationalised in 2025. Check the applicable rate for the transaction date, especially for older invoices.

Difference Between GST Inclusive and GST Exclusive Prices
The difference is whether the quoted price already contains GST.
|
GST Exclusive |
GST Inclusive |
|
GST is added to the original price |
GST is already part of the price |
|
Useful for preparing quotations |
Useful for checking final bills |
|

Starts with the tax-inclusive amount |
|
Example: ₹1,000 + ₹180 GST |
Example: ₹1,180 including ₹180 GST |
If a shop quotes ₹1,000 plus 18% GST, you pay ₹1,180. If the price is ₹1,000 including 18% GST, the tax is already included. It should not be added again.
An including GST calculator is particularly helpful when you want to understand the tax portion of a final price.
What Are CGST, SGST and IGST?
GST can be divided into different components depending on the type and place of supply.
CGST (Central Goods and Services Tax): The central component of GST on an intra-state taxable supply.
SGST (State Goods and Services Tax): The state component of GST on an intra-state taxable supply. UTGST may apply in relevant Union Territories.
IGST (Integrated Goods and Services Tax): Generally applies to inter-state taxable supplies and imports.
For example, consider a taxable transaction worth ₹10,000 at 18% GST.

Can You Use a GST Payment Calculator for Tax Payments?
A GST payment calculator can help estimate the tax on a particular transaction.
For instance, a freelancer charging ₹10,000 for a taxable service at 18% GST would calculate ₹1,800 in GST, making the invoice total ₹11,800.
However, the GST shown on an invoice is not necessarily the amount a registered business must pay to the government.
Actual GST liability may depend on eligible input tax credit, adjustments, reverse-charge rules and other applicable provisions.
Use the calculator to understand transaction-level GST, not as a replacement for GST return calculations.
How Does GST Apply to Personal Loan Processing Fees?
GST may also form part of the charges you pay when borrowing money.
Under applicable GST provisions, interest on a conventional personal loan is generally exempt from GST. However, processing fees and certain other service charges may attract GST.
Example: GST on a loan processing fee
Assume a lender charges ₹500 as a processing fee, excluding GST, and 18% GST applies.
|

The borrower pays ₹590 in processing charges, including GST.
At Pocketly, we encourage borrowers to check applicable processing fees, GST, interest and repayment terms before accepting a loan offer.
Our GST calculator can help you estimate tax on a processing fee. Your actual loan charges will depend on the applicable loan offer and disclosures.
