  2. Rate of $GST$ on $AC$

  3. Taxable value of $AC$

  4. Total amount of $GST$

  5. Amount of $CGST$

  6. Amount of $SGST$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
According to the question 
(i) Rate of SGST
We know that, rate of CGST and SGST is same of the product
Rate of CGST on AC = Rate pof SGST on AC = $14%$

(ii) Rate of GST on AC = $14%$ CGST + $14%$ = $28%$

(iii) Let taxable value of AC be $x$
Amount of GST = Cost of AC with GST - Taxable value of AC
$28%$ of taxable value = $(51200-x)$
$28%$ of $x$ = $51200-x$
$\frac {28} {100} \times x = 51200-x$
$28x =100(51200-x)$
$28x+100x = 5120000$
$128x = 5120000$
$x=\frac {5120000}{128}$
$x = 40,000$

(iv) Amount of GST = $51200-x$ $= 51200-40000$
$= 11200$
Amount of GST $= 11,200$

(v) Amount of CGST $= 14%$ of taxable value
$\frac {14}{100} \times40000 = 5600$
Amount of CGST $= 5600$

(vi) Amount of SGST $= 5600$
Therefor the  SGST $= 5600$

The net income of a business man after paying income tax at the rate of $5\%$ is $ $209,000$, then his gross income is 

  1. $250, 000$

  2. $269000$

  3. $249800$

  4. $220,000$


Correct Option: D

Let  gross income is $x$

Income tax is $5%$ of $x =\dfrac{5x}{100}$

$ then$

$x-\dfrac { 5x }{ 100 } =209,000$

$\dfrac { 95 }{ 100 } \times x=209,000$

$ x=\dfrac { 209,000\times 100 }{ 95 } =220,000$

$ Hence\quad the\quad gross\quad income\quad is\quad 220,000$

A shopkeeper sold a bicycle to a customer for  $Rs. 10304$ including GST. The rate of GST was $12\%$. Find SGST payable to him.

  1. $Rs. 1104$

  2. $Rs. 552$
