The marked price of an article is ₹ 1,500 and discount on it is 20%. How much money will be paid for this article, if rate of GST is 18% ?

1. ₹ 2124

2. ₹ 1416

3. ₹ 1770

4. ₹ 216

Given,

M.P. = ₹ 1500

Discount = 20%

Rate of G.S.T. = 18%

Discounted price = M.P. - Discount

= 1500 - $\dfrac{20}{100} \times 1500$

= 1500 - 300

= ₹ 1200.

G.S.T. on discounted price

$= \dfrac{G.S.T. \%}{100} \times \text{Discounted price} \\[1em] = \dfrac{18}{100} \times 1200 \\[1em] = ₹ 216.$

Money paid for article = Discounted price + G.S.T.

= ₹ 1200 + ₹ 216 = ₹ 1416.

Hence, Option 2 is the correct option.
