About Tipping

Tipping is a practice of giving a gratuity to service workers as a way to show appreciation for their service. The amount of tip typically depends on the quality of service and local customs.

Tipping Guidelines

Service Quality Recommended Tip
Poor Service 5-10%
Average Service 10-15%
Good Service 15-20%
Exceptional Service 20-25% or more

Note: Tipping practices vary by country and region. In some countries, tipping is not customary or is already included in the bill as a service charge.

Tipping Etiquette

  • Always tip based on the pre-tax amount of your bill.
  • For large groups, check if a service charge is already included.
  • In fine dining, consider tipping more for exceptional service.
  • For takeout, a small tip of 5-10% is appreciated but not always expected.
  • When splitting a bill, calculate the tip on the total before dividing.

Quick Tip Calculation

For a quick mental calculation, you can use these simple methods:

10% Tip

Move the decimal point one place to the left.
Example: ₹450.00 → ₹45.00

15% Tip

Calculate 10%, then add half of that amount.
Example: ₹450.00 → ₹45.00 + ₹22.50 = ₹67.50

20% Tip

Calculate 10%, then double that amount.
Example: ₹450.00 → ₹45.00 × 2 = ₹90.00
