What are the current GST rates for services?
Common GST rates for services in India are 5%, 12%, 18%, and 28%. Most professional and telecommunication services fall under the 18% slab.
What was the Education Cess?
Before GST, an Education Cess (usually 2%) and a Secondary & Higher Education Cess (1%) were added to the base service tax rate. This tool allows you to include these for historical or specific calculations.
How do I calculate GST on a service?
GST = (Taxable Value × GST Rate) / 100. If the amount already includes tax, use: Tax Amount = Total Amount - [Total Amount / (1 + GST Rate/100)].
