(i) As the dealer in Maharashtra buys an article from a wholesaler in Maharashtra, so this sale is intra-state.
Rate of GST is 12%. So GST comprises of CGST at 6% and SGST at 6%.
Printed price of the article = ₹ 20,000
Discount = 20%
Purchase price of the article for the dealer = Printed price - Discount
= ₹ 20,000 - 20% of ₹ 20,000
= ₹ 20,000 -
= ₹ 20,000 - ₹ 4,000
= ₹ 20,000 - ₹ 4,000
= ₹ 16,000
CGST collected by the wholesaler = 6% of 16000 = x 16000 = ₹ 960
SGST collected by the wholesaler = 6% of 16000 = x 16000 = ₹ 960.
Hence, tax paid by the wholesaler to the government is CGST = ₹ 960 and SGST = ₹ 960.
(ii) The dealer sells the article at a discount of 10% on the printed price.
∴ Selling price of the article by the dealer to the consumer = Printed price - Discount
= ₹ 20,000 - 10% of ₹ 20,000
= ₹ 20,000 -
= ₹ 20000 - ₹ 2,000
= ₹ 18,000
As the dealer in Maharashtra sells the article to a consumer in Telengana, so this sale is inter-state.
Rate of GST is 12%. So, on this sale IGST is levied at 12%.
IGST collected by the dealer from the consumer = 12% of ₹ 18,000
= x ₹ 18,000
= ₹ 2160.
Input GST of the dealer = CGST + SGST = ₹ 960 + ₹ 960 = ₹ 1,920
Output GST of the dealer = IGST = ₹ 2,160
Net tax liability of the dealer = Output GST - Input GST
= ₹ 2,160 - ₹ 1,920 = ₹ 240
Hence, the dealer pays ₹ 240 IGST to the Central Government.
(iii) The total amount paid by the consumer = Selling price of the article + GST paid by the consumer
= ₹ 18,000 + ₹ 2,160
= ₹ 20,160
Hence, the amount which the consumer pays for the article = ₹ 20,160.
