Unequal bill? Exact ya percentage split choose karo.
Unequal does not have to mean complicated. Decide whether the difference comes from individual consumption, unequal benefit or a pre-agreed contribution ratio, then use the matching calculation.
Clear process. Less friction.
Use these steps as a starting point, then adapt the timing and split to your group’s actual agreement.

Identify why shares differ
Separate consumption differences from benefit differences. A personal meal item is exact; a larger bedroom may be a weight.
- 02
Choose exact, percentage or weight
Use exact rupees when amounts are known, percentages when shares are agreed, and weights when only relative value is known.
- 03
Allocate common charges
Tax, delivery and service fees can be proportional to order value or equal—choose and state the rule.
- 04
Validate the total
Make sure assigned amounts match the final bill after discounts, refunds and fees.

Should tax be split equally or proportionally?
Proportional tax usually follows what each person ordered, while a truly fixed fee can reasonably be divided equally.
What if the itemised shares are short of the final bill?
Find the unallocated tax, fee, tip or missing item and assign it explicitly instead of silently adding it to the payer.
