How to use it — and why it matters

Works-contract GST trips up billing every cycle — especially back-calculating the base value out of a GST-inclusive amount. This calculator does both directions: add GST to an exclusive amount, or strip GST out of an inclusive figure, at 18% (the common works-contract rate), 12% or 5%.

What GST rate applies to works contracts?

Most construction works contracts attract 18% GST, with 12% and 5% applying to specific categories (e.g. certain affordable housing and government works). Confirm your project's category with your tax advisor.

How do I remove GST from an inclusive amount?

Divide the inclusive amount by (1 + rate). This tool's 'Remove GST' mode does it for you and shows the base value and the GST component.
