Bill Splitter & Group Expense Calculator

No more awkward dinner math. Quickly calculate each person's exact share of a dining bill including tips and service charges.

Subtotal or total food & beverage bill before tip.

Gratuity or service reward percentage added to the bill.

Total count of friends or colleagues splitting the bill.

How it works

Calculates the total gratuity based on your chosen tip rate, combines it with the base bill, and calculates each person's individual contribution down to the exact rupee.

Formula

Total = Bill × (1 + (Tip% / 100)), Per Person = (Total / N_people)

Calculates the tip amount, adds it to the bill total, and divides equally among all group members.

Worked example

₹2,400 restaurant bill split among 4 friends with 10% tip

Bill Amount:
₹2,400
Tip Rate:
10%
People:
4

Tip Amount = 10% of ₹2,400 = ₹240. Total Bill with Tip = ₹2,640. Amount Per Person = ₹2,640 / 4 = ₹660 (₹600 meal + ₹60 tip each).

Limitations

Does not automatically handle itemized splits where one diner ordered significantly more expensive dishes or alcohol.

Frequently asked questions

Is restaurant tipping mandatory in India?

No, tipping is voluntary. If a restaurant already includes a mandatory 'Service Charge' (typically 5-10%) on your invoice, you are not legally required to pay an additional tip.

How does rounding affect split bills?

For cash payments, groups usually round up to the nearest ₹10 or ₹50. For UPI apps (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm), exact paisa amounts can be transferred instantly.

What is a standard tip percentage internationally?

In the US and Canada, 15% to 20% is standard. In Europe and India, 5% to 10% is customary for good service.
