What is the difference between CGST, SGST, and IGST?

For intra-state sales (within the same state), GST is split equally into Central GST (CGST) and State GST (SGST). For inter-state sales, the entire tax goes to Integrated GST (IGST).

Is GST applicable on real estate purchases in India?

Yes, under-construction properties attract 5% GST for standard housing and 1% for affordable housing. However, ready-to-move properties with a Completion Certificate (CC) are exempt from GST.

How can I extract GST from a total price?

Use the formula: Base Price = Total Price / (1 + (GST Rate / 100)). The difference between Total Price and Base Price is your GST tax component.
