Work out a contractor invoice total and net

A contractor’s invoice adds GST and has TDS deducted, so the amount billed, the amount the client pays, and the amount you receive are three different numbers. This calculator computes the invoice total with GST, the TDS deduction and the net receivable, so all three are clear.

Why three numbers, not one

GST is added on top of your fee and collected from the client for onward remittance; TDS is deducted by the client from the payment and remitted on your behalf. So the invoice total includes GST, the client pays that total, and you receive it less the TDS. Confusing these leads to under-quoting or cash-flow surprises. Laying out the fee, the GST, the TDS and the net makes the whole flow explicit.

The full picture

This is an estimate for planning from the figures you enter, not financial advice, and real outcomes depend on rates and rules that change. Confirm anything important with the relevant institution or a qualified adviser. The calculation runs entirely in your browser, so your financial figures are never uploaded.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are there three different amounts?

Your fee, the invoice total with GST added, and the net you receive after TDS is deducted. GST is collected for remittance; TDS is withheld and remitted on your behalf.

Is GST added or deducted?

Added on top of your fee and collected from the client. TDS, by contrast, is deducted from the payment, so they move in opposite directions.

What is the net receivable?

The invoice total including GST, minus the TDS the client deducts, which is what actually reaches your account.

Why does this matter for quoting?

Because confusing GST and TDS leads to under-quoting or cash-flow surprises. Seeing all four figures keeps your pricing and expectations correct.

Is this financial advice?

No. It is an estimate. Confirm the applicable GST and TDS rates for your work.
