As per GST rules, the tax rate on mobile phones is the same across the nation. There are possibilities of a drop in the prices of mobile phones as the GST rates are now reduced. GST rates for mobile phones is 18% and the HSN code is 8517.
When SGST & CGST or IGST is Applied?
As mentioned, 18% GST has to be paid by the customer on the purchase of mobile phones. If the customer is buying a phone from the dealer within state premises then that 18% will equally be divided into SGST (State GST) and CGST (Central GST).
On the contrary, if the customer gets the phone from a dealer from another state, then 18% IGST will be applicable. This clearly means the import of mobile phones (from one state to another) will have to face 18% IGST.
Significance of HSN Code under GST for Mobile Phones and Accessories
GST rates on mobile phones and accessories for mobile phones are determined under HSN Chapter 85. HSN Chapter 85 has different GST rate slabs according to which GST rates are applicable on the purchase of mobile phones. Therefore it is mandatory to mark the correct HSN code to prevent wrong invoicing and extra charges.

Oppo F15 MRP is 22990 (inclusive of all taxes)but I bought it in 20000. The memo given to me is showing Rs. 16949 as mobile cost and 1525.42 as SGST and Cgst.what is the equation I’m not getting. Is there any answer to this?
20000/118*100= Rs.16949 = Taxable value & GST tax @18% on 16949 comes to Rs.3050.82, CGST = 3050.82/2= 1525.41 & SGST = 3050.82/2 = 1525.41
Bro gst rate is 18 prcnt that is 3050.82
