Why Flat Tax Division is Unfair
Consider a table where four friends dine together. The subtotal is ₹2,000, and 5% GST adds ₹100, bringing the bill to ₹2,100.
If one diner had a ₹200 starter and three diners had ₹600 platters, dividing the ₹100 GST into ₹25 per person is unfair. The person who spent ₹200 is being taxed at 12.5%, while the high spenders are being subsidized.
The Proportional Tax Formula
Your Tax Share = (Your Personal Food Total / Subtotal) × Total GST
Under this formula, the ₹200 order incurs exactly ₹10 of tax, and each ₹600 order incurs ₹30 of tax.
