Add tax: Incl. = Excl. × (1 + rate) | Remove tax: Excl. = Incl. ÷ (1 + rate)

Variables

Excl.Price excluding tax (net price)
Incl.Price including tax (gross price)
rateTax rate as a decimal (e.g. 0.18 for 18%)

Explanation

When adding tax: multiply the net price by (1 + tax rate). When removing tax from an inclusive price: divide by (1 + tax rate) — this gives the correct net price. Simply subtracting the percentage from the gross price is incorrect.

What is the GST / VAT Calculator?

GST and VAT are consumption taxes that affect virtually every purchase of goods and services. Whether you are a business calculating invoice amounts, a consumer checking if a price includes tax, or an accountant verifying tax liability, a GST/VAT calculator is an indispensable tool for daily financial tasks.

How to Use This Calculator

Select whether you want to add tax to a net price or remove tax from an inclusive price. Enter the amount and select the applicable tax rate. The calculator instantly shows the tax amount, exclusive price, and inclusive price.

Common GST / VAT Rates by Region

Region · rateApplies to
India GST — 5%Essential goods, basic foodstuffs
India GST — 12%Standard-rated goods
India GST — 18%Most goods & services, electronics, restaurants
India GST — 28%Luxury goods, cars, tobacco
UK VAT — 20%Standard rate, most goods & services
UK VAT — 5%Reduced rate (e.g. home energy)
UK VAT — 0%Zero-rated (most food, books, children's clothing)
EU VAT — 21%Standard rate (varies by member state)

Worked Examples

Adding 20% VAT to a £1,000 net price

A UK business invoicing at the standard 20% rate.

VAT = £1,000 × 20%
£200
Gross (inclusive) price
£1,200

Invoice total £1,200, of which £200 is VAT.

Removing 20% VAT from a £1,200 gross price

Working backwards from a VAT-inclusive total.

Net = £1,200 ÷ 1.20
£1,000
VAT portion
£200

The £1,200 contains £1,000 net + £200 VAT.

Never subtract 20% from the gross to get the net — £1,200 − 20% = £960, which is wrong. Divide by 1.20.

Why Use MyCalculatorsHub's GST / VAT Calculator?

This calculator handles both directions of GST/VAT calculation and includes common rates for India (5%, 12%, 18%, 28%) and Europe (5%, 20%, 21%), plus a custom rate option. The formula explanation helps you understand the correct calculation method.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Never remove tax by simply multiplying the inclusive price by the tax rate percentage — you must divide by (1 + rate). Also, ensure you are using the correct tax slab for your product category, as misclassification can lead to over- or under-charging tax.
