Question

Mr. Malik went on a tour to Goa. He took a room in a hotel for two days at the rate of Rs. 5000 per day. On the same day, his friend John also joined him. The hotel provided an extra bed, charging Rs. 1,000 per day for the bed. How much GST, at the rate of 28%, is charged by the hotel in the bill to Mr. Malik, for both days?

Answer 1

According to the question,

The amount of bill = 5000 × 2 + 1000 + 1000

= Rs. 12,000

GST = 28% of 12,000

= `28/100 xx 12,000`

= 3360

GST charged by Mr. Malik is Rs. 3360.
