Frequently Asked Questions
How much should I tip at a restaurant in India?
10% is a commonly accepted tip at Indian restaurants. For exceptional service, 15-20% is appreciated. Many upscale restaurants add a service charge (10-12.5%) to the bill — check before adding more. For budget restaurants and dhabas, tipping is optional but rounding up the bill is appreciated.
How much should I tip in the US?
In the United States, tipping is a significant part of service workers' income. Standard tips: restaurants 15-20% (20% for excellent service), hair salons 15-20%, hotel housekeeping $2-5 per night, taxi/rideshare 10-15%, food delivery 10-20%. Not tipping is generally considered rude.
What is the easiest way to calculate a 15% tip?
Quick mental math: Find 10% (move decimal point one place left), then add half of that for 15%. For a ₹850 bill: 10% = ₹85, half of that = ₹42.50, so 15% tip = ₹127.50.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Etiquette varies by country and situation. In the US, most people tip on the pre-tax total as a courtesy. Either way, the difference is small on typical restaurant bills. Use whichever feels natural, or use this calculator which lets you enter whatever total amount you want to tip on.
