Educational estimate only. Real invoices, bank offers and government rates may include extra conditions.
These inputs are illustrative
The starting values are made-up components for learning the arithmetic. They are not a current pump-price quote, notified excise rate or a particular state’s VAT schedule. Replace them only after checking a dated price build-up for your location.
Worked example
With illustrative base price ₹55, excise ₹20 and dealer component ₹4, the subtotal is ₹79. Applying an assumed 25% VAT to that subtotal adds ₹19.75, producing ₹98.75. The tool assumes VAT applies to the whole subtotal; actual state rules can use different bases or additional charges.
What to compare
Use the same city, fuel, date and unit when comparing invoices. A change in crude prices is not the same as an immediate change in a retail pump price. Read GST basics for why different levies need separate treatment.
