(i) Given,

Cost of medicines = ₹ 950

GST amount for medicines = 5% of ₹ 950

= 5100×950\dfrac{5}{100} \times 950

= 4750100\dfrac{4750}{100}

= ₹ 47.5

Cost of shoes = ₹ 3,000

GST amount for shoes = 18% of ₹ 3000

= 18100×3000\dfrac{18}{100} \times 3000

= 54000100\dfrac{54000}{100}

= ₹ 540

Cost of laptop bag = ₹ 1,000

Discount on laptop bag = 30% of ₹ 1,000

= 30100×1000\dfrac{30}{100} \times 1000

= ₹ 300.

Amount applicable for GST = ₹ 1,000 - ₹ 300 = ₹ 700.

GST amount for laptop bag = 18% of ₹ 700

= 18100×700\dfrac{18}{100} \times 700

= ₹ 126.

Total amount of GST paid = ₹ 47.5 + ₹ 540 + ₹ 126 = ₹ 713.50

Hence, total amount of GST paid = ₹ 713.5.

(ii) The total bill amount including GST paid by Mr. Bedi = Cost of medicines + Cost of pair of shoes + Cost of laptop bag + Total amount of GST paid

= ₹ 950 + ₹ 3,000 + ₹ 700 + ₹ 713.50

= ₹ 5363.50

Hence, total bill amount including GST paid by Mr. Bedi = ₹5363.5.
