How This Calculation Works
Many online sellers mistake gross payout for profit. Real profit requires deducting product manufacturing/procurement cost (COGS), forward and return logistics, platform commissions, fixed fees, ad spend, and non-recoverable tax liabilities from gross selling price.
💡 Realistic Indian E-Commerce Example
For a product sold at ₹999 with COGS of ₹350, shipping ₹70, marketplace commission 10% (₹99.90), ad spend 15% (₹149.85), packaging ₹15, and 18% GST on fees (₹17.98), your net profit is ₹296.27 per order (29.65% profit margin).
