How to Calculate a Tip
Tip Calculation FormulaTip Amount = Bill × (Tip % ÷ 100)
Total = Bill + Tip Amount
Per Person = Total ÷ Number of People
Example: ₹1,200 bill, 15% tip, 4 people
Tip = ₹180 · Total = ₹1,380 · Per person = ₹345
Total = Bill + Tip Amount
Per Person = Total ÷ Number of People
Example: ₹1,200 bill, 15% tip, 4 people
Tip = ₹180 · Total = ₹1,380 · Per person = ₹345

Splitting Bills Fairly
When splitting a bill, there are a few approaches: equal split (everyone pays the same), proportional split (each pays for what they ordered), or host pays. Our calculator handles equal splits — for proportional splits, calculate each person's subtotal separately.
💡 Pro tip: Always add the tip before splitting, not after. Splitting first and then each person tipping separately often results in under-tipping.
