₹1,00,000: GST exclusive vs inclusive
| ₹1,00,000 + GST | ₹1,00,000 incl. GST | |
|---|---|---|
| Price before GST | ₹1,00,000 | ₹78,125 |
| GST @ 28% | ₹28,000 | ₹21,875 |

- Exclusive (adding GST): GST = ₹1,00,000 × 28 ÷ 100 = ₹28,000.
- Inclusive (removing GST): base = ₹1,00,000 × 100 ÷ 128 = ₹78,125; GST = ₹1,00,000 − ₹78,125 = ₹21,875.

Within a state, the 28% is split equally into CGST and SGST (UTGST in union territories without a legislature) at 14% each. On a sale to another state, or an import, the full 28% is charged as IGST.
| ₹1,00,000 + GST | ₹1,00,000 incl. GST | |
|---|---|---|
| CGST @ 14% | ₹14,000 | ₹10,937.50 |

| or IGST @ 28% | ₹28,000 | ₹21,875 |
The 28% slab before 22 September 2025
Before 22 September 2025, 28% applied to items such as air conditioners, large TVs, cement, cars and two-wheelers, usually with compensation cess on top for cars. GST 2.0 moved most of them to 18%, and large cars, motorcycles above 350 cc and aerated drinks to 40%. At the time of the change, tobacco products and pan masala stayed on their earlier rate and cess until a date to be notified, so check the current CBIC rate notification for those. Use these figures for invoices dated before 22 September 2025.
The rate for a particular item depends on its HSN code (goods) or SAC code (services), so confirm it in the CBIC rate notifications before you invoice.
