What is the difference between CGST, SGST, and IGST?

CGST (Central GST) and SGST (State GST) are levied on intrastate transactions — each is half the applicable GST rate. IGST (Integrated GST) is levied on interstate transactions at the full GST rate and is collected by the Central Government.

When should I use Interstate (IGST) vs Intrastate (CGST+SGST)?

Use IGST when the supplier and buyer are in different states. Use CGST+SGST when both supplier and buyer are in the same state or union territory.

What is GST-inclusive vs GST-exclusive mode?

GST-exclusive (Add GST): You enter the base price and GST is added on top. GST-inclusive (Remove GST): You enter the total price already including GST and the calculator extracts the base amount and tax.
