GST Calculator

Calculate India GST with slab presets and CGST/SGST or IGST breakdown, then switch to Canada GST/HST mode for province-based CRA rates.

Last Updated: May 2026

GST and HST transaction calculator

Calculate India GST slabs or Canada GST/HST by province

Add tax to a pre-tax amount, extract tax from an inclusive total, split India GST into CGST/SGST or IGST, and estimate simple GST/HST collected after input credits.

Rule Snapshot: Reviewed May 2026

India presets use current major GST slabs of 0%, 5%, 18%, and 40%, with special and legacy presets for transaction-specific use. Canada mode uses CRA place-of-supply GST/HST rates: 5% GST in non-participating provinces and territories, 13% HST in Ontario, 14% HST in Nova Scotia, and 15% HST in other participating provinces.

How to Use This Calculator

Start by choosing India GST or Canada GST/HST. India mode is best when you need slab presets and a CGST/SGST or IGST invoice-style breakdown. Canada mode is best when the question is the CRA place-of-supply GST/HST rate for a province or territory.

Use exclusive mode when the entered price is before GST/HST. Use inclusive mode when the entered price already includes GST/HST and you need to reverse the tax portion.

  1. Step 1: Choose India or Canada mode

    Use India GST for slab presets and CGST/SGST or IGST output, or Canada GST/HST for province-based CRA rates.

  2. Step 2: Select exclusive or inclusive pricing

    Exclusive mode adds GST/HST to the net price; inclusive mode extracts GST/HST from a price that already includes tax.

  3. Step 3: Pick the rate context

    For India, choose a slab or custom rate and intra-state or inter-state supply. For Canada, choose the place-of-supply province or territory.

  4. Step 4: Enter amount, quantity, discount, and credit

    The calculator applies quantity and discount before tax, then subtracts any input tax credit from the simple remittance estimate.

  5. Step 5: Review component breakdown

    Check tax amount, gross total, effective tax share, CGST/SGST/IGST or GST/HST component rows, and caution notes.

How the GST Calculator Works

The calculator first multiplies the amount by quantity, then applies any discount. From there it either adds GST/HST to the net price or divides an inclusive price by 1 + rate to extract the tax portion. The output keeps net amount, tax amount, gross amount, and per-unit values separate.

StepFormula
Add GST/HSTTax = net amount x rate; gross = net amount + tax
Remove GST/HSTNet amount = gross amount / (1 + rate); tax = gross - net
India intra-state splitCGST = half of GST; SGST/UTGST = half of GST
India inter-state splitIGST = full GST amount
Simple remittance estimateGST/HST collected - input tax credit, floored at zero in this tool

India mode then converts the GST amount into CGST plus SGST/UTGST for intra-state supplies or IGST for inter-state supplies. Canada mode keeps the GST or HST as one component because CRA guidance uses a single GST/HST rate by place of supply.

India GST Slabs and Canada GST/HST Rates

India GST Slab Presets

India GST rates depend on the exact goods or services supplied. This calculator uses current major slab presets and keeps special or legacy rates clearly labeled so old invoices and transition cases do not get confused with ordinary current defaults.

PresetUse caseCalculator treatment
0%Nil, exempt, or zero-rated suppliesProduces no GST amount, but classification still matters for invoicing and credit treatment.
5%Current merit-rate presetUseful for eligible lower-rate goods or services after checking the HSN/SAC classification.
18%Current standard-rate presetCommon default for many taxable supplies and services.
40%Special demerit-rate presetUse only where official notification applies to the exact supply.
0.25% and 3%Special low-rate presetsUseful for narrow categories such as selected precious stones or precious metals.
12% and 28%Legacy or transition presetsIncluded for old invoices, transition periods, and notification-specific checks, not as a generic default.

For India income-tax planning, use the India Income Tax Calculator. GST is a transaction tax on supplies, so it should not be mixed with ITR regime comparison.

Canada GST/HST Province Mode

Canada mode uses province or territory selection to apply GST/HST rates. It does not add separate PST, RST, or QST in non-harmonized provinces, so the output stays focused on GST/HST rather than becoming a full provincial sales-tax calculator.

What This Calculator Does Not Replace

GST/HST math is simple, but tax treatment is not always simple. Classification, exemption status, invoice timing, place of supply, and credit eligibility can all change the final filing answer.

LimitWhat to verify
India HSN/SAC classificationProduct or service classification controls the real GST rate. The calculator cannot classify the supply for you.
India cess and reverse chargeCompensation cess, reverse charge, composition levy, e-invoicing, and blocked credits are not modeled.
Canada PST, RST, and QSTNon-harmonized provincial sales taxes are separate from GST/HST and are intentionally excluded.
Filing return rulesThis is a transaction estimate, not a GST/HST return, GSTR-3B, GST/HST NETFILE, or account reconciliation.

Frequently Asked Questions

It adds GST/HST to a tax-exclusive amount or extracts GST/HST from a tax-inclusive total. India mode adds CGST/SGST or IGST component detail, while Canada mode uses province-based GST/HST rates.

Multiply the price by the GST rate to get the tax amount, then add the tax to the price. For example, Rs. 10,000 at 18% GST gives Rs. 1,800 tax and Rs. 11,800 total.

Divide the inclusive total by `1 + GST rate`. The difference between the inclusive total and the net amount is the GST portion.

In India, intra-state supplies are usually split into CGST and SGST or UTGST. Inter-state supplies and imports are usually shown as IGST. The calculator switches this breakdown based on the supply-type input.

The calculator includes 12% and 28% as legacy or transition presets because old invoices, special notifications, or transition cases may still need them. Current ordinary use should be checked against official GST Council and CBIC rate notifications.

No. Canada mode calculates federal GST or harmonized HST only. Separate PST, RST, or QST in provinces such as British Columbia, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Quebec is outside this calculator.

CRA guidance states that Nova Scotia HST is 14% for supplies on or after April 1, 2025. Older Nova Scotia transactions may require a different rate.

It can estimate tax collected minus an input tax credit amount for a simple transaction. It does not replace GST/HST return rules, eligibility checks, reverse charge, blocked credits, or account-level adjustments.

No. The VAT calculator is a broad multi-country add/remove VAT tool. This GST calculator is intentionally focused on India slab and component behavior plus Canada GST/HST place-of-supply rates.

Yes. The GST calculator, India component split, Canada GST/HST province mode, FAQs, and educational guidance are free to use.
