How it calculates

Add GST: GST = amount × rate ÷ 100, total = amount + GST
Remove GST: base = total ÷ (1 + rate ÷ 100), GST = total − base
CGST = SGST = GST ÷ 2

Worked example

Add 18% to ₹1,000: GST = 1,000 × 18 ÷ 100 = ₹180 (CGST ₹90 + SGST ₹90), total ₹1,180. Remove 18% from ₹1,180: base = 1,180 ÷ 1.18 = ₹1,000.

From the Knowledge Base

GST = 2000 × 18 ÷ 100 = ₹360
Total payable = 2000 + 360 = ₹2,360

On the invoice, for a sale within the state:
CGST @ 9% = ₹180
SGST @ 9% = ₹180
Total tax = ₹360, exactly as before. The split is an accounting matter, not extra tax.

From the Knowledge Base

Correct method — divide.
Base = 2360 × 100 ÷ 118 = 236 000 ÷ 118 = ₹2,000
GST = 2360 − 2000 = ₹360

Check by the direct formula: GST = 2360 × 18 ÷ 118 = 42 480 ÷ 118 = ₹360 ✓

The wrong method — subtracting 18%.
2360 × 0.82 = ₹1,935.20, which is ₹64.80 short of the true base price.
