The formula
Worked example
On a ₹1,850 bill with a 10% tip the tip is ₹185 and the total is ₹2,035. Shared by 4 people, each pays about ₹509.
Understanding your result
Rounding up makes the share a whole rupee and nudges the tip slightly higher, shown in "Tip as % of bill". The chart shows the bill and tip as a share of the total.
When to use it
- Decide a fair tip at a restaurant.
- Split a group dinner quickly.
- Check if a service charge is already in the bill.
Assumptions and limits
Tipping customs vary by country and venue. In India a service charge is often already included, so check your bill first.
Frequently asked questions

Multiply the bill by the tip percentage and divide by 100. 10% of ₹1,850 is ₹185.
What tip percentage is normal?
It varies by country. In India 5% to 10% is common where no service charge is added. In the US 15% to 20% is typical.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Either is accepted. Enter the amount you want the tip based on.
What does rounding up do?
It raises the total so that each person pays a whole amount.
Is the service charge already a tip?
A service charge is added by the restaurant. Check the bill before adding more.
