Given,

Cost price for retailer = ₹ 8000

Profit % = 15%

Selling price for retailer = C.P. + Profit

= ₹ 8000 + ₹ 15100×8000\dfrac{15}{100} \times 8000

= ₹ 8000 + ₹ 1200

= ₹ 9200.

For intra-state transaction :

S.G.S.T. = C.G.S.T. % = G.S.T.2=102\dfrac{G.S.T.}{2} = \dfrac{10}{2} = 5%

S.G.S.T. = C.G.S.T. = 5100×S.P.=5100×9200\dfrac{5}{100} \times S.P. = \dfrac{5}{100} \times 9200 = ₹ 460.

Total G.S.T. paid by customer = S.G.S.T. + C.G.S.T. = ₹ 460 + ₹ 460 = ₹ 920.

Hence, Option 2 is the correct option.
