Frequently Asked Questions
How much tip to give in a restaurant in India? ▼
In India, 5–10% is the typical restaurant tip for good service. At fine dining establishments, 10% is standard. For quick service restaurants and delivery, rounding up the bill is common. In the US, 15–20% is the standard; 18–20% for good service.
How to split a restaurant bill equally? ▼
Enter the total bill amount and the number of people in our Tip Calculator. The calculator automatically divides the total (including tip) equally among all diners. For example: ₹2,400 bill + 10% tip = ₹2,640 total ÷ 4 people = ₹660 each.
Is 18% GST on restaurant bills the same as tip? ▼
No. The 18% or 5% GST on your restaurant bill is a government tax added to food costs — it is mandatory and goes to the government. A tip is a voluntary amount you give directly to the service staff as appreciation for their service.
What is service charge on restaurant bills? ▼
Some restaurants add a Service Charge (typically 5–10%) on the bill for table service. This is different from GST and goes to the restaurant. Per CCPA guidelines in India, service charge is optional and can be waived on customer request.
