Question

• A. ₹540
• B. ₹680
• C. ₹720
• D. ₹840

Answer 1

The correct option is C ₹720

When the product is sold from Kannauj to Banaras (It is an intra-state transaction).
For the Dealer in Kannauj, SP = ₹12000
CGST = SGST = 9% of ₹12000 = ₹1080

When the product is sold from Banaras to Ranchi(It is an Inter-state transaction).
For the Dealer in Banaras :
Input Tax Credit(ITC) = ₹1080 + ₹1080 = ₹2160
CP = ₹12000.
Profit = ₹4000.
SP = CP + Profit = ₹12000 + ₹4000 = ₹16000
IGST = 18% of ₹16000 = $\frac{18}{100}\times 16000$ = ₹2880
$\therefore$ Net GST payable at Banaras = Output GST - ITC
= ₹2880 - ₹2160 = ₹720
