Correct tax calculation is the backbone of GST compliance. Whether you are a retailer or a service provider, knowing the difference between inclusive and exclusive pricing is vital.
Inclusive Pricing
If a product is sold for ₹118 (including 18% GST), the base price is ₹100 and the tax is ₹18. Use the reverse formula: Total / (1 + Rate/100).
Exclusive Pricing
Standard for B2B. You quote a base price and add GST on top. This is the preferred node for service nodes like IT consulting.
