The printed price of an article is Rs 50000. The wholesaler allows a discount of
10% to a shopkeeper. The shopkeeper sells the article to a consumer at 4% above
the marked price. If the sales are intra-state and the rate of GST is 18%, find:
(i) The amount inclusive of tax (under GST) which the shopkeeper pays for the
articles.
(ii) The amount paid by the consumer for the article.
(iii) The amount of tax (under GST) paid by the shopkeeper to the Central
Government.
(iv) The amount of tax (under GST) received by the State Government.
It is a case of intra-state transaction of goods and services.
SGST = CGST = ½ GST
Given:
Marked price of an article = ₹50000
Rate of GST = 18%
(i) The amount inclusive of tax (under GST) which the shopkeeper pays for the articles.
Rate of discount given by the wholesaler = 10%
CP of an article for shopkeeper = Marked price – Discount = ₹50000 – 10% of ₹50000
= ₹50000 – (10/100) × 50000
= ₹50000 – 5000
= ₹45000
Amount of GST paid by dealer to wholesaler,
CGST = SGST = 9% of ₹45000
= (9/100) × 45000
= ₹4050
Amount paid by shopkeeper for an article = CP of an article for shopkeeper + CGST paid
by consumer + SGST paid by consumer = ₹45000 + ₹4050 + ₹4050 = ₹53100
(ii) The amount paid by the consumer for the article.
SP of an article for consumer = Marked price – Discount
= ₹50000 – 4% of ₹50000
= ₹50000 – (4/100) × 50000
= ₹50000 – 2000
= ₹48000
Amount of GST paid by consumer to dealer,
CGST = SGST = 9% of ₹48000
= (9/100) × 48000
= ₹4320
Amount paid by consumer for article = CP of article for consumer + CGST paid by
consumer + SGST paid by consumer = ₹48000 + ₹4320 + ₹4320 = ₹56640
(iii) The amount of tax (under GST) paid by the shopkeeper to the Central Government.
₹4320 - ₹4050 = ₹270
(iv) The amount of tax (under GST) received by the State Government.
SGST paid by wholesaler + SGST paid by shopkeeper = ₹4050 + ₹270 = ₹4320
