Tax-Inclusive Pricing Setup

To separate GST from a tax-inclusive price, you must first enable tax-inclusive pricing in Shopify, then configure GST rates inside GST Pro so the app can reverse-calculate the taxable value and GST from the final price shown to customers.

Before You Start

Shopify is set to include tax in product prices

GST rates and HSN codes are configured inside GST Pro

Shopify controls checkout pricing

GST Pro controls invoice calculations and reporting

Step-by-Step: Enable Tax-Inclusive Pricing with Correct GST Split

Follow these steps to configure both Shopify and GST Pro

Step 1: Enable tax-inclusive pricing in Shopify

Step 2: Define GST rates inside GST Pro (mandatory)

Step 3: Ensure discounts are split correctly (important)

Step 4: Verify the setup

How Tax-Inclusive Calculation Works

Shopify sends the final paid price (tax included)
GST Pro uses the GST percentage you configured
The app performs a reverse calculation to:
- Extract taxable value
- Split GST correctly on the invoice

This affects invoices and reports, not checkout display.

Common Mistakes & Limitations

Important considerations when using tax-inclusive pricing

Shopify setting applies only to new orders

App vs Shopify behavior

Manual mirroring is required

Reverse-calculation edge cases

Plan & Store Setup Differences

All plans support basic tax-inclusive separation on invoices.

Startup plan or higher is required for GST reports that reflect inclusive tax breakdowns.

GST Pro cannot override how taxes appear on Shopify checkout.

When This Setup Is Complete

Shopify shows tax-inclusive prices

GST Pro invoices show separate taxable value

GST Pro invoices show correct GST split

Discounts are applied before GST separation
