Today, we will discuss Goods and Services Tax or GST and how we can calculate it using specific formulas. Can anyone tell me what GST is?
It's a tax on the supply of goods and services, right?
Absolutely! GST is an indirect tax. Now, we can calculate the amount of GST using the formula: GST = Taxable Amount × GST Rate. For example, if the taxable amount is ₹10,000 and the GST rate is 18%, what would the GST be?
It would be ₹1,800 because ₹10,000 × 0.18 equals ₹1,800!
Great job! Now, how do we find the final price after applying the GST?
The final price would be the cost price plus the GST.
Correct! Remember that: Final Price = Cost Price + GST. Today, we learned the first two important formulas related to GST.
Moving on, let’s discuss Input Tax Credit. Can anyone explain why a business might need ITC?
Isn’t it because they want to deduct taxes they’ve already paid on purchases?
Exactly! The formula we use is Net GST Payable = Output GST – Input GST. Could you calculate the net GST payable if the output GST is ₹2,700 and the input GST is ₹1,800?
It would be ₹900, right?
Correct! This is important for businesses to ensure they pay the right amount of tax. Always remember your formulas!
Let's apply what we've learned. A shopkeeper buys goods for ₹10,000 with an 18% GST. What are the input GST and the output GST if they sell for ₹15,000?
The input GST would be ₹1,800 like before, and the output GST would be ₹2,700.
Perfect! Can you now find the net GST payable?
That would be ₹900!
Exactly! You all are doing great at applying these formulas to real-life scenarios.
When you sell a thing, don’t forget the ring; GST’s the tax that will surely cling.
Imagine a shop owner, Alex, who buys toys for ₹10,000 and learns to calculate GST. When he sells them for more, he makes sure to manage his Input Tax Credit carefully!

An indirect tax levied on the supply of goods and services.
The portion of GST collected by the Central Government for intra-state sales.
The portion of GST collected by the State Government for intra-state sales.
A tax charged on inter-state supply of goods and services.
Credit received for tax paid on purchases, which can be used to offset GST payable.
This section introduces crucial formulas related to Goods and Services Tax (GST), essential for understanding indirect taxation in commerce.
The formulas outlined here provide foundational calculations for understanding GST, including determining tax liabilities and calculating the final selling price. Emphasis is placed on practical applications through examples, showcasing how shopkeepers manage tax credits and liabilities.
In this segment of Chapter 1 on Commercial Mathematics, we delve into the essential formulas associated with the Goods and Services Tax (GST). GST is an indirect tax imposed on the supply of goods and services, and knowing the relevant formulas is critical for calculating both tax liabilities and final prices.
Key formulas include:
GST = Taxable Amount × GST Rate provides a straightforward method to determine the GST payable based on the taxable amount and the applicable tax rate.Final Price = Cost Price + GST.Net GST Payable = Output GST – Input GST, allowing businesses to offset taxes due.A practical example illustrates these formulas in action: If a shopkeeper purchases goods worth ₹10,000 with an 18% GST and sells them for ₹15,000, they first calculate:
Through this example, students can see how these formulas interrelate in real-world scenarios.
