Discount amount = price × (discount % ÷ 100)
Final price = price − discount amount
Or in one step: final price = price × (1 − discount % ÷ 100). A 20% discount means you pay 80% of the original price.

Discount Calculator
A '40% off' tag is only useful if you know the final price. This calculator takes the original price and discount percentage and instantly shows how much you save and what you actually pay — in rupees, with Indian digit grouping. Handy for sale season, negotiating with vendors, or pricing your own products.
You pay
₹799.20
- You save
- ₹199.80
How it works
Worked example
A kurta priced at ₹999 with 20% off:
- Discount = 999 × 20 ÷ 100 = ₹199.80
- You pay = 999 − 199.80 = ₹799.20
Understanding your results
You pay is the checkout price after discount — compare it across sellers rather than comparing discount percentages, since percentages are always relative to the (sometimes inflated) MRP. You save is the absolute rupee saving.
Watch for stacked offers: a "20% + extra 10%" deal applies the second discount on the already-discounted price, not 30% off the original.

Frequently asked questions
Find 10% by moving the decimal one place left (10% of ₹999 ≈ ₹100), then multiply. 20% is double that (₹200 off), 15% is 10% plus half of 10%.
No. The second discount applies to the reduced price: ₹1,000 → ₹800 after 20%, then 10% off ₹800 = ₹720. That's a 28% total discount, not 30%.
The classic trick is inflating the MRP before the sale so the 'discount' looks bigger. Always compare the final price with other sellers, not the percentage.
A discount lowers what you pay now. Cashback returns money later (often as wallet credit with conditions). A 20% discount beats 20% cashback in real value.
