Add GST to a base amount
To add GST, multiply the base amount by the selected GST rate and divide by 100. The GST-inclusive total is the base amount plus that tax.
For example, on a base amount of ₹1,000 at 18%, GST is ₹180 and the total is ₹1,180.
Calculate GST in either direction: add tax to a base amount or reverse a GST-inclusive amount into its base value and GST component.
GST = Base × rate ÷ 100Calculate GST-inclusive and GST-exclusive amounts in India. Add GST to a base price or remove GST from a tax-inclusive total with common rate presets.

To add GST, multiply the base amount by the selected GST rate and divide by 100. The GST-inclusive total is the base amount plus that tax.
For example, on a base amount of ₹1,000 at 18%, GST is ₹180 and the total is ₹1,180.
To reverse an inclusive price, divide the GST-inclusive amount by 1 + rate/100. The difference between the inclusive total and that base amount is the GST component.
For an inclusive total of ₹1,180 at 18%, the base value is ₹1,000 and the GST component is ₹180.
India does not have one universal GST rate for every supply. CBIC publishes rate schedules and FAQs, and the applicable rate depends on the classification and nature of the goods or services.
Toolmera provides common 5%, 12%, 18% and 28% presets for convenience, but those buttons do not determine the legally applicable rate for a specific transaction. Verify the current official classification when accuracy matters.

Toolmera separates the base value, GST component and GST-inclusive total.
Reference material used for assumptions and regulatory context:
Multiply the base price by the GST percentage to get the tax amount, then add that tax to the base price.
Divide the inclusive total by 1 + GST rate/100 to recover the base amount, then subtract the base from the inclusive total to get the GST component.
No. They are common headline slabs, but exemptions and other rates can apply depending on classification. Check current CBIC/GST Council information for the actual supply.
