Uber Driver GST Calculator: How to Estimate Your BAS
By ALITAX Team ·
You don't need to be an accountant to understand BAS numbers — you just need a structure.
What you need
- Total GST-inclusive income from Uber/DiDi
- Total GST credits from business expenses
- Business-use percentage for mixed expenses
Basic idea (simplified)
- GST on income (often 1/11th of GST-inclusive amount)
- Minus GST credits on expenses (business portion only)
- Equals net GST payable or refundable
Why drivers get it wrong
- Using payout numbers instead of fare totals
- Ignoring platform fees/adjustments
- Claiming credits on expenses without GST invoices
