Question

A box containing 200 bats was to be sent from Kerala to Maharashtra. The GST on it was 12%. If the total GST paid was ₹360, what was the price of the box?

• A. ₹3600
• B. ₹3000
• C. ₹4500
• D. ₹2400

Answer 1

The correct option is B ₹3000

The transcation is between Kerala and Maharashtra and hence this is an inter-state transaction.
Hence only IGST is charged and rate is given as 12%.
Let the price of the box be ₹x.
$\frac{12}{100}\times x$ = ₹360
$\Rightarrow$ x = $\frac{360\times 100}{12}$ = ₹3000
Hence the price of the box was ₹3000
