Frequently Asked Questions

What is markup? +
Markup is the amount added to cost price to get selling price. Formula: Selling Price = Cost × (1 + Markup%/100). If cost is ₹100 and markup is 50%, selling price = ₹100 × 1.50 = ₹150. Markup ₹50 over cost.
Markup vs Profit Margin — what's the difference? +
Markup is calculated on cost, margin on selling price. ₹100 cost with ₹50 added: Markup = 50/100 = 50%, Margin = 50/150 = 33.33%. Markup is always HIGHER than margin for the same product. Retailers use markup, accountants use margin.
What's a typical retail markup in India? +
Industry markup ranges: Apparel 100-300%, Jewelry 50-100%, Electronics 10-30%, Groceries 10-20%, Restaurants 200-300%, Pharma 30-50%, Books 20-40%. Higher markup = higher risk of unsold inventory.
How to convert markup to margin? +
Margin% = Markup% ÷ (100 + Markup%) × 100. Example: 40% markup → 40/(100+40) × 100 = 28.57% margin. Reverse: Markup% = Margin% ÷ (100 - Margin%) × 100.
Should markup include GST? +
Calculate markup on PRE-GST cost, then add GST on the marked-up price for final customer price. Cost ₹100 + 40% markup = ₹140 + 18% GST = ₹165.20 final price. This avoids double-charging GST.
