GST Inclusive vs. Exclusive

When giving prices to clients, state if your rate includes GST or not:

• GST Exclusive: TThe quoted amount is just your fee, and GST is added to it.
• GST Inclusive: The quoted amount has GST in it, and you get the net after taking GST out.

CGST, SGST, and IGST Explained

Depending on your client's location relative to yours:

• Intra-state (Same State): GST is divided equally into CGST (Central GST) and SGST (State GST).
• Inter-state (Different State): The entire GST is charged as IGST (Integrated GST).
