Example (kalpanik aankde — fictional figures)
Maan lijiye ek kirana store Indore mein hai. 1 April 2024 ko usne kuch transactions kiye:
- Sales: ₹48,000 (GST 5%)
- Purchases: ₹30,000 (GST 5%)
- Expenses: ₹5,000 (bijli bill)
Calculations:
GST on Sales = ₹48,000 × 5% = ₹2,400
Total Sales including GST = ₹48,000 + ₹2,400 = ₹50,400
GST on Purchases = ₹30,000 × 5% = ₹1,500
Total Purchases including GST = ₹30,000 + ₹1,500 = ₹31,500
Net Expense = ₹5,000 (no GST assumed on expense for simplicity)
Closing Stock calculation (maan lein opening stock ₹1,00,000 and no other stock movement):
Closing Stock = Opening Stock + Purchases - Sales
= ₹1,00,000 + ₹30,000 - ₹48,000
= ₹82,000
Is example se aap samajh sakte hain ki har transaction ko alag alag record karna aur GST alag se calculate karna zaroori hai.
Common mistakes
