Amazon Price Calculator for Sellers
This Amazon Price Calculator helps Amazon sellers calculate the correct selling price based on real marketplace costs, not guesswork.
Amazon pricing is complex. Referral fees, fixed closing fees, shipping charges, GST on fees, returns, and advertising costs all affect your final margin. Many sellers focus only on product cost and end up scaling products that look profitable but actually lose money per order.
This calculator gives you a clear unit-level breakdown, helping you understand:
Actual selling price required on Amazon
Referral fee and closing fee impact
GST applied on product and marketplace fees
Effect of returns and ads cost
Real profit margin per unit
If you want to avoid silent losses and price your products safely on Amazon, this calculator helps you make informed pricing decisions.
How This Calculator Works
This calculator is built specifically for Amazon marketplace pricing and reflects how Amazon fees and taxes impact seller profitability.
You enter your product cost, referral fee percentage, closing fee (manual or auto-estimated), shipping cost, GST rate, expected return rate, packaging cost, ads spend, and desired profit margin. The calculator then computes the selling price required to achieve your target margin after all Amazon-related costs.
The tool automatically:
Applies 18% GST on Amazon referral, closing, and shipping fees
Accounts for product GST separately
Estimates return-related losses
Adjusts pricing to realistic marketplace price points
This approach helps sellers avoid underpricing, understand true costs, and evaluate whether a product is financially viable on Amazon before scaling.
Example Selling Price Calculation
Setting the right selling price on Amazon requires balancing product cost, marketplace fees, taxes, return risk, advertising spend, and target profit margin.
For example, consider a product being sold on Amazon with a sourcing cost of ₹150. In addition to the product cost, Amazon sellers incur expenses such as shipping charges, fixed closing fees, packaging costs, and advertising spend. Since returns are a regular part of Amazon selling, an estimated return rate is also factored into the calculation.
Based on these inputs, the calculator determines the selling price required to cover all Amazon fees, GST, return-related losses, and still achieve the desired profit margin.
Example Scenario
Assume the following details for a product listed on Amazon:
Product cost: ₹150
Referral fee: 10%
Closing fee: ₹30
Shipping charge (base): ₹60
Packaging cost: ₹10
Ads cost per unit: ₹20
Estimated return rate: 10%
Product GST rate: 12%
Desired profit margin: 30%
Step-by-Step Calculation
1. Fixed operational costs
These are the base costs incurred for every order.
Product cost = ₹150
Packaging cost = ₹10
Ads cost = ₹20
Shipping charge + 18% GST = ₹60 × 1.18 = ₹70.80
Closing fee + 18% GST = ₹30 × 1.18 = ₹35.40
Total fixed costs:
₹150 + ₹10 + ₹20 + ₹70.80 + ₹35.40 = ₹286.20
2. Return loss provision
Returns mainly impact shipping, closing fee, and packaging costs.
Return loss = (Shipping + Closing fee + Packaging) × Return rate
= (₹60 + ₹30 + ₹10) × 10%
= ₹10
3. Total cost to be recovered
Fixed costs + return loss:
₹286.20 + ₹10 = ₹296.20
4. Selling price calculation
From the selling price, Amazon deducts:
Referral fee + GST = 11.8%
Product GST = 12%
Desired margin = 30%
Total percentage impact = 53.8%
This means 46.2% of the selling price is available to cover costs.
Selling Price
= ₹296.20 ÷ (1 − 0.538)
≈ ₹641
