Frequently asked questions

Imports bear IGST at the same 18% on the assessable value plus customs duty — the GST rate itself doesn't change for imported pairs.

For a sale within one state, the 18% splits equally into 9% CGST and 9% SGST. For an interstate sale it is charged as a single 18% IGST — the total tax is the same either way.
