What are the GST slabs in India?

India uses multiple GST slabs — commonly 5%, 12%, 18% and 28% — applied according to the category of goods or services, alongside special rates for some items.

How is GST split between CGST and SGST?

For intra-state sales the GST is typically split equally between CGST and SGST. At 18% total, that is 9% CGST and 9% SGST.

Adding and removing 18% GST

Add: net × 1.18 = gross. ₹1,000 → ₹1,180 (GST ₹180). Remove: gross ÷ 1.18 = net. ₹1,180 → ₹1,000 (GST ₹180).
