GST Calculator (India)
Add GST to a base price (exclusive) or extract GST from a total (inclusive). Supports common India GST rates (0%, 5%, 12%, 18%, 28%). Useful for invoices, quotes, and quick checks.
This GST calculator helps you quickly split an amount into base + tax, or add tax on top of a base amount. Pick the correct mode, choose the GST rate, and you’ll get the numbers you can copy into an invoice or quote.
Need to reverse a total that already includes GST? Try the reverse GST calculator.

How to calculate GST
Pick the mode, rate, then enter your amount.
1. Choose inclusive/exclusive
Exclusive adds GST on top. Inclusive extracts GST from the total.
2. Select GST rate
Common slabs: 0%, 5%, 12%, 18%, 28%.
3. Enter amount
Copy the base, GST amount, and total into your invoice or quote.
Inclusive vs exclusive GST
GST exclusive (add GST)
You have a base price and want the total after GST. The tool calculates tax and grand total.
GST inclusive (remove GST)
You have a total that already includes GST and want the base amount and tax component.
GST formulas
How the base and tax are computed.
If the base amount is \(B\) and GST rate is \(r\) (for example 18% = 0.18):
Tax = B × r, Total = B × (1 + r)
If the total amount \(T\) already includes GST:
Base = T / (1 + r), Tax = T − Base
Common pitfalls
Confusing inclusive vs exclusive
If your price already includes GST, use inclusive mode. If GST needs to be added on top, use exclusive mode.
Wrong GST rate
Rates depend on product/service classification. Use the applicable rate for your invoice or quote.
Rounding expectations
Invoices may round paise differently depending on accounting settings. Treat this as a calculator for planning and quick checks.
Place of supply rules
Whether CGST/SGST or IGST applies depends on intra-state vs inter-state supply. Use the splitter tool when you need that breakdown.
