Marked price of an article = Rs. 20,000

(i)

For the dealer:

Cost price = Rs. 20,000

GST = 18% of Rs. 20,000 = Rs. 3600

So, the price of the article (inclusive of GST) for the shopkeeper is Rs. 23600.

(ii)

GST paid by the shopkeeper = Rs. 3600

For consumer:

Cost price = 20000 + 25% of 20000 = Rs. 25000

GST paid by the consumer = 18% of 25000 = Rs. 4500

∴ Input tax for the shopkeeper = Rs. 3600

Output tax for the shopkeeper = Rs. 4500

Tax paid by the shopkeeper to the government = Output tax – Input tax = Rs. 900.

Thus, the amount of tax, under GST, paid by the shopkeeper to the Government is Rs. 900.
