How is a tip calculated?
The tip is a percentage of the bill. Add it to the bill, then divide by the number of people.
Tip = bill × tip % ÷ 100
Total = bill + tip
Each person = total ÷ people
Tipping in India
Tipping isn't compulsory in India, but 5–10% is common at sit-down restaurants when service is good. Check the bill first: if a service charge is already added, you may not want to tip on top. Restaurants can't force you to pay a service charge.
Quick mental maths
For 10%, move the decimal point one place left: 10% of ₹2,400 is ₹240. For 15%, add half of that again (₹360). For 5%, halve the 10% figure.
