How to calculate gst on MRP 

To calculate GST on MRP (Maximum Retail Price), follow these steps:

1. Identify the GST Rate: Determine the applicable GST rate on the particular product or service. For example, if the GST rate is 18%, note this percentage.

2. Calculate GST Amount: Multiply the MRP by the GST rate in decimal form. The formula is:

   

   \[ GST Amount = MRP \times \left(\frac{GST Rate}{100}\right) \]

3. Total Price: Add the calculated GST amount to the MRP to get the total price.

For instance, if the MRP of a product is ₹1,000 and the GST rate is 18%:

\[ GST Amount = 1000 \times \left(\frac{18}{100}\right) = ₹180 \]

So, the total price including GST would be ₹1,000 + ₹180 = ₹1,180.

This straightforward calculation ensures you include the applicable GST on the MRP, providing a clear understanding of the total cost.

1. Identify the GST Rate: In this case, the GST rate is 18%.

2. Calculate GST Amount: Multiply the total amount by the GST rate in decimal form. The formula is:

   

   \[ GST Amount = Total Amount \times \left(\frac{GST Rate}{100}\right) \]

   \[ GST Amount = ₹50,000 \times \left(\frac{18}{100}\right) = ₹9,000 \]

So, the 18 percent GST on ₹50,000 would be ₹9,000. The total amount, including GST, would be ₹59,000.
