Worked example

Meesho profit calculator: a ₹399 kurti

A ₹399 kurti at 5% GST with a ₹70 shipping charge pays ₹314.10 into your bank per delivered order. After a ₹180 cost, ₹15 packaging and a 20% return rate, it leaves about ₹78 average profit per order shipped.

What the numbers mean

  • ₹0 commission: Meesho charges 0% on every category.
  • ₹12.60 GST on shipping: 18% of the ₹70 shipping charge.
  • ₹2.30 TCS and TDS: 0.5% of ₹380 plus 0.1% of ₹399, both claimable back.
  • ₹314.10 bank settlement: ₹399 − ₹70 − ₹12.60 − ₹2.30, paid on the 7th day from delivery.
  • ₹115 profit on a delivered order: ₹380 taxable value − ₹70 shipping − ₹180 cost − ₹15 packaging, with GST on shipping, TCS and TDS claimed back.
  • ₹78 average per order shipped: at 20% returns, 0.8 × ₹115 − 20% × ₹70 return fee.

What changed

TCS dropped from 1% to 0.5% on 10 July 2024 (Notification 15/2024-Central Tax). Garment and footwear GST moved to 5% up to ₹2,500 and 18% above on 22 September 2025 (56th GST Council, PIB). Meesho’s 0% commission was unchanged when we checked on 4 Oct 2026.

Why your Meesho payout is lower than the price

The gap is shipping plus 18% GST on it, then TCS and TDS. Four things catch sellers out.

Settlement ₹12–13 lower than price minus shipping

18% GST is added on the shipping charge. Price with the GST line in; if you are GST-registered, claim it as input credit.

A few rupees missing on every order

TCS 0.5% and TDS 0.1% are held back. They are not fees: both come back as tax credits when you file, so ask your CA to claim them.

Profit gone in a heavy-return week

Each customer return costs a return shipping fee by weight. Enter your real return rate, not zero: an RTO costs nothing, a return does.

GST paid at 18% on a ₹2,400 kurti

Wrong band picked. Up to ₹2,500 a piece is 5% (effective 22 Sep 2025).

What the calculator includes, and what it leaves out

Free, no signup, and the maths runs in your browser. It models a regular GST seller who claims input credit.

Included

The charges Meesho and the tax law apply to every order: 0% commission, shipping with 18% GST, TCS and TDS (rates retrieved 4 Oct 2026).

Left out

Meesho Ads spend, GST on your packaging purchases, and a seller without a GSTIN, who joins with an Enrolment ID / UIN (Meesho how-it-works, 3 Oct 2026) and whose tax lines differ. If you run ads, treat the profit line as a ceiling.
