Analysis
Example: a trader with Rs 25 lakh taxable sales in a quarter pays Rs 25,000 (Rs 12,500 CGST plus Rs 12,500 SGST). For traders, exempt goods sales are left out of the base. A restaurant with Rs 20 lakh quarterly sales pays Rs 1 lakh. The tax must be paid from your own pocket, since you cannot charge GST to customers. Check the latest rate notification before filing.
