Here’s a simple 4-step GST example showing how GST at 5% works through the supply chain — from importer → wholesaler → retailer → consumer — assuming profit margins of 5%, 7%, and 8% at each stage respectively.
Each business pays GST only on the value they add(after profit), not on the whole price the previous business already paid. They recover the GST they paid earlier as an input tax credit (ITC) and only send the difference to the government. The final consumer bears the full GST cost.
________________________________________ Given
• Base cost of goods at import: Nu. 100 (value before any profit or tax)
• GST rate: 5%
• Profit margins:
• Importer: 5%
• Wholesaler: 7%
• Retailer: 8%
________________________________________Importer Stage
1. Importer buys goods at Nu.100.
2. Add 5% profit:
Profit = 5% × 100 = Nu. 5
→ Selling price before GST = Nu. 105
3. GST at 5% on 105 = Nu. 5.25
4. Importer charges Nu. 5.25 to wholesaler and can claim back GST he paid on inputs (if any).
→ Price wholesaler pays = 105 + 5.25 = 110.25
________________________________________Wholesaler Stage
1. Wholesaler receives the goods at Nu. 110.25 (GST included).
• The GST Nu. 5.25 acts as input tax credit.
2. Add 7% profit on 105 (base cost before GST):
Profit = 7% × 105 = 7.35
→ Selling price before GST = 112.35
3. GST at 5% on 112.35 = 5.62
4. Wholesaler charges GST to retailer:
→ Price retailer pays = 112.35 + 5.62 = 117.97
________________________________________ Retailer Stage
1. Retailer receives the goods at 117.97 (GST included).
• The GST 5.62 is creditable as input tax credit to the retailer.
2. add 8% profit on 112.35 (base cost before GST):
Profit = 8% × 112.35 = 8.99
→ Selling price before GST = 121.34
3. GST at 5% on 121.34 = 6.07
4. Retailer charges GST to consumer:
→ Final price consumer pays = 121.34 + 6.07 = 127.41
________________________________________

Recap Table
Stage Value Before GST GST (5%) Final Price to Next
Importer sells to wholesaler(Profit 5%) 105 5.25 110.25
Wholesaler sells to retailer(Profit 7%) 112.35 5.62 117.97
Retailer sells to consumer(Profit 8%) 121.34 6.07 127.41
Final GST remitted to Government is Nu. 6.07 in this case and not 5.25+5.62+6.07. In the goods of worth Nu. 100 the consumer pays Nu. 6.07 as GST which is nonrefundable, that’s why the consumer is the ultimate payer.
Final Consumer
• The consumer cannot claim any input tax credit — so they actually pay the full GST charged at this last stage.

Final Result
• Total GST paid by the final consumer: 6.07
• Total GST received by the government: 6.07
• Collected in Stages/parts from:
o Importer: 5.25
o Wholesaler: 0.37
o Retailer: 0.45
This shows the core idea of GST:
Tax is collected only on value addition at each stage, but the full tax burden rests with the final consumer.

A new lifeline of the pulley ropeway is installed over the Amochu river to reconnect Denchukha geog to the rest of Dorokha Dungkhag after the makeshift bamboo bridge was recently washed away. The permanent bailey bridge over Amochu was washed away on 4th October.
