Solution
An article which is marked at ₹ 1200 is available at a discount of 20% and the rate of GST is 18%. The amount of SGST is ₹ 86.40.
Explanation:
1. Calculate discounted price:
Discount = `20/100 xx 1200` = 240
SP = 1200 – 240 = 960
2. Calculate total GST:
Total GST = 18% of 960
= `18/100 xx 960`
= 172.80
3. Calculate SGST:
SGST = `172.80/2`
= 86.40
Thus, the amount of SGST is indeed ₹ 86.40.
