Invoice and calculator representing GST calculation

Whether you're raising an invoice, quoting a client, or checking a bill — GST calculations need to be exact. Getting them wrong creates problems with clients, accountants, and tax filings. Doing them manually every time is slow and risky.

The GST Calculator gives you the exact GST amount and total price for any rate — 5%, 12%, 18%, or 28% — instantly.

How GST Calculation Works

GST (Goods and Services Tax) is applied as a percentage on the base price of a good or service. The calculation depends on whether you're starting with the pre-GST price or the GST-inclusive total.

Adding GST to a base price:

  • Base price: ₹10,000
  • GST rate: 18%
  • GST amount: ₹1,800
  • Total (GST inclusive): ₹11,800

Extracting GST from a GST-inclusive price:

  • GST-inclusive price: ₹11,800
  • GST rate: 18%
  • GST amount: ₹1,800
  • Base price: ₹10,000

The calculator handles both directions.

How to Use the GST Calculator

  1. Go to rohansurve.in/free-tools/gst-calculator

  3. Select the GST rate — 5%, 12%, 18%, or 28%
  4. Choose whether you're adding GST or extracting it
  5. Get the GST amount and total instantly

No formula needed. No manual calculation.
