Goods and Services Tax (GST) is India's 'One Nation, One Tax' system that revolutionized indirect taxation. Whether you are a business owner issuing an invoice, a freelancer filing returns, or a consumer verifying a bill, getting the GST math right is non-negotiable.

GST Exclusive vs Inclusive: The Difference

GST Exclusive

You have a base price (e.g., Factory Cost) and need to add tax on top.

Tax = Price × (GST% / 100)
Total = Price + Tax

GST Inclusive

You have the final MRP and need to remove tax to find the base price.

Base = MRP × [100 / (100 + GST%)]
