As for the upfront payment, as we will have to pay it plus gst, will they include the gst amount to be deducted in our monthly bills?

I am currently on the RedOne RM48 plan (10GB high speed data, 200 mins local calls) so if I get the IP-X at retail price, this would be my TCO for 24 months.
RM48 x 24 months + gst = RM1221.12
iphone-x 256gb + gst = RM5899.00
total cost of ownership = RM7120.12
RM98 x 24 + gst = RM2493.12
iphone-x 256gb + gst = RM4534.68 (advance payment + gst = RM742.00 / total upfront + gst = RM5276.70)
total cost of ownership = RM7027.80
Advantages = upgrade of data plan to 20GB wkday + 20GB wkend and unlimited local calls
Hope my calculations are more or less correct. My math is not what it was
While your math is correct, it is hard to make decision base on cost of ownership alone. Because together with that cost, it comes with how many free data and free calls you'll receive each months...so...RM48 x 24 months + gst = RM1221.12
iphone-x 256gb + gst = RM5899.00
total cost of ownership = RM7120.12
RM98 x 24 + gst = RM2493.12
iphone-x 256gb + gst = RM4534.68 (advance payment + gst = RM742.00 / total upfront + gst = RM5276.70)
