Question

Samson TV brand sells its television sets at a price which involves 18% GST. If Samson sells its TV sets across states and the GST per set being collected is ₹1260, what would be the total amount charged for each television set?

Answer 1

Let the selling price of the television be $₹x$.

$\Rightarrow$ Taxable value = $₹x$

GST rate = 18%

GST paid = ₹1260 (given)

$\Rightarrow 18\%\text{of}x=₹1260$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{1260\times 100}{18}=₹7000$

Total amount charged for each television

= Price of the television set + GST

= ₹7000 + ₹1260 = ₹8260

$\therefore$ Total amount charged for each television set is ₹8260.
