Both CGST and SGST would be levied on the same price or value unlike State VAT which is levied on the value of the goods inclusive of CENVAT
AmAn KumAr
The Central GST and the State GST is levied simultaneously on every transaction of supply of goods and services except the exempted products and services, goods which are outside the purview of GST, and the transactions which are below the prescribed threshold limits.
If both were levied on the same price or value, unlike State VAT, which is collected on the value of the goods inclusive of CENVAT, while the location of the supplier and the recipient within the country is immaterial for CGST, SGST would be chargeable only when the supplier and the recipient are both located within the State. For example, Suppose that the rate of CGST is 10%, and that of SGST is 10%. Then when a wholesale dealer supplies goods to a small retailer, which is also located within the same State or city. And the total cost is Rs. 100, the dealer would charge CGST of Rs. 10 and SGST of Rs. 10 in addition to the basic price of the goods. He would be required to deposit the CGST component into a Central Government account while the SGST portion into the account of the concerned State Government.

Further, both would be levied on the same price or value unlike State VAT which is levied on the value of the goods inclusive of CENVAT. While the location of the supplier and the recipient within the country is immaterial for the purpose of CGST, SGST would be chargeable only when the supplier and the recipient are both located within the State. Illustration I: Suppose hypothetically that the rate of CGST is 10% and that of SGST is 10%.
When a wholesale dealer of steel in Uttar Pradesh supplies steel bars and rods to a construction company which is also located within the same State for, say Rs. 100, the dealer would charge CGST of Rs. 10 and SGST of Rs. 10 in addition to the basic price of the goods. He would be required to deposit the CGST component into a Central Government account while the SGST portion into the account of the concerned State Government.
