Understanding Amazon & Flipkart Seller Taxes
Selling on e-commerce platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, or Meesho in India involves multiple layers of deductions before the money reaches your bank account. This estimate models GST TCS under Section 52 and e-commerce income-tax TDS: Section 194-O for periods governed by the Income-tax Act, 1961, and the corresponding Section 393(1), Table Sl. No. 8(v), under the Income-tax Act, 2025 from Tax Year 2026-27.
TCS (GST) vs TDS (Income Tax)
For supplies to which both provisions apply, the current rates used in this estimate are:
0.5% GST TCS (Section 52): Calculated on the net value of taxable supplies made through the operator, excluding the GST amount. The credit is reflected in the seller's GST electronic cash ledger.
0.1% e-commerce income-tax TDS: The gross sale amount is the starting point. For applicable periods, CBDT guidance says separately shown GST may be excluded when tax is deducted at credit; if deduction is made at payment before credit, the whole amount may be used. The corresponding Income-tax Act, 2025 provision is Section 393(1), Table Sl. No. 8(v), from Tax Year 2026-27.
Illustration: If a marketplace sale is ₹1,180 including 18% GST, the base taxable value is ₹1,000. Estimated GST TCS is ₹5 (0.5% of ₹1,000). Estimated e-commerce TDS is ₹1.18 on the full order value, or ₹1 when separately shown GST is excluded on the selected basis. This tool does not check the annual ₹5 lakh exclusion available to qualifying individuals/HUFs who provide PAN or Aadhaar. Marketplace statements, deduction timing, and applicable law determine the actual settlement.

How is GST calculated for Amazon, Flipkart, and Meesho sellers?
Sellers should separate GST charged on the product from GST shown on marketplace fee invoices. This estimate assumes 18% GST on the commission, fixed fee, and shipping fee entered here; confirm each actual fee and tax rate against the operator invoice.
What is GST TCS under Section 52 for e-commerce operators?
Where Section 52 applies, an e-commerce operator collects GST TCS on the net value of taxable supplies made through it. The operator statement and applicable statutory conditions determine the amount.
What is the current notified rate of GST TCS for e-commerce?
The notified GST TCS rate is 0.5% (0.25% CGST + 0.25% SGST for intra-state supplies, or 0.5% IGST for inter-state supplies) calculated on the net taxable supply value.
What is the difference between GST TCS and Income Tax TDS under Section 194-O?
GST TCS (Section 52) is collected on the net value of taxable supplies and credited to your GST Electronic Cash Ledger. Income-tax TDS is 0.1% on the gross sale amount under Section 194-O for periods governed by the Income-tax Act, 1961; for Tax Year 2026-27 onwards, the corresponding provision is Section 393(1), Table Sl. No. 8(v) of the Income-tax Act, 2025. The TDS treatment of separately stated GST depends on the applicable law, guidance, and timing of deduction.
How do customer returns and refunds affect GST TCS calculation?
Under Section 52, TCS is computed on the "net value of taxable supplies", which is gross taxable sales minus the value of taxable supplies returned by customers during the calendar month.
Can e-commerce sellers claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) on marketplace fees?
GST on marketplace fees may qualify for ITC if the seller is registered and the applicable Section 16 conditions are met, subject to any blocked-credit rule. Check the operator tax invoice and GSTR-2B; the fee deduction alone does not establish eligibility.
Do all online marketplace sellers need mandatory GST registration?
Notification 34/2023-Central Tax waives compulsory registration for eligible goods suppliers through e-commerce operators when turnover stays below the applicable registration threshold in the preceding and current financial years and its other conditions are met. The exemption excludes inter-State goods supplies and requires PAN declaration and portal enrolment.
Why is net bank settlement payout lower than the product selling price?
This estimate subtracts the marketplace fees and shipping you enter, GST on those fees, estimated 0.5% GST TCS, and estimated 0.1% e-commerce income-tax TDS. The TDS base can depend on how GST is shown and when tax is deducted; check the marketplace statement.
How do sellers claim the deducted GST TCS on the GST portal?
After the operator files GSTR-8, review the TCS entries in the TDS/TCS Credit Received facility on the GST portal and accept eligible entries according to the current portal workflow. Accepted credit is reflected in the electronic cash ledger; reconcile it with the operator statement.
Which financial reports must be reconciled before filing monthly GST returns?
Compare marketplace settlement and tax reports with sales invoices, returns, credit notes, GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B. Check the relevant tables for your actual B2B/B2C supplies and place of supply; no single table fits every transaction.
