GST (Goods & Service Tax) was rolled out in India w.e.f. 1st July 2017. The GST Number contains a mix of Alpha Numeric 15 digits.
Checksum is the letter mapped to the checksum number.
Here is the CHECKSUM CONVERSION TABLE.
You can find more information about Indian GST on podcasts at http://www.corporateshatak.com >> PODCAST >> GST-Blue-Saffron
Below is the Java Implementation of Checksum Logic that you can copy paste & run.
package gst.in.janisoftwares;
/**

* Checksum is the last (15th) digit of the Indian GST Number.
* Following Java code implements logic of finding the Checksum.

The output as below.
