Given:
The printed price of article is ₹40000. The rate of GST on sale or purchase of article is 18%. Here both the sales from manufacturer to wholesaler and wholesaler to retailer are inter-state, so IGST is levied on these sales at 18%

(i) As the wholesaler buys the article from a manufacturer at 10% discount on the printed price,

∴ Cost price of the article for the wholesaler:

Cost Price for wholesaler = Printed Price-Discount

=40000(10100×40000)=400004000=36000= 40000 - \Big(\dfrac{10}{100} \times 40000\Big) \\[0.5em] = 40000 - 4000 \\[0.5em] = ₹36000

Amount of IGST collected by manufacturer from wholesaler(or paid by wholesaler to manufacturer)
IGST=18% of 36000 = 18100\dfrac{18}{100} x 36000 = ₹6480

∴ Amount of Input GST of wholesaler:

Input IGST = ₹6480

The amount inclusive of tax (under GST) which the wholesaler pays for the article:
= Cost price of article for wholesaler + IGST paid by wholesaler
= 36000 + 6480= ₹42480

(ii) As wholesaler sells the article to retailer at 5% above the printed printed price. The selling price of article by wholesaler(or cost price of article for retailer) = Printed Price + Premium

=40000+(5100×40000)=40000+2000=42000= 40000 +(\dfrac{5}{100}\times40000) \\[0.5em] = 40000 + 2000 \\[0.5em] = ₹42000

Amount of IGST collected by wholesaler from retailer(or paid by retailer to wholesaler)
IGST=18% of 42000 = 18100\dfrac{18}{100} x 42000 = ₹7560

∴ Amount of Output GST of wholesaler:

Output IGST = ₹7560

The amount inclusive of tax (under GST) paid by the retailer for the article:
= Cost price of article for retailer + IGST paid by retailer
= 42000 + 7560= ₹49560

(iii) The amount of tax (under GST) paid by the wholesaler to the Central Government:
= Output IGST of wholesaler - Input IGST of wholesaler
= 7560 - 6480 = ₹1080.

(iv) The amount of tax (under GST) received by the Central Government:
= IGST paid by Manufacturer + IGST paid by wholesaler
= 6480 + 1080 = ₹7560.
