  2. BCGST Rs 63,000; SGST Rs 63,000; IGST Rs 0
  3. CCGST Rs 90,000; SGST Rs 90,000; IGST Rs 54,000
  4. DCGST Rs 63,000; SGST Rs 0; IGST Rs 54,000

Explanation

Supplies (i) and (iii) are intra-State, with total value Rs 7,00,000. Tax at 18% is Rs 1,26,000, split equally into CGST Rs 63,000 and SGST Rs 63,000. Supply (ii) is inter-State, so IGST is 18% of Rs 3,00,000, which is Rs 54,000. Option C wrongly applies the full 18% to each of CGST and SGST.
