| Variant | Ex-showroom | Road tax (Telangana) | On-road | EMI (7yr) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AXT RWD Diesel MT | ₹9,99,500 | ₹1,19,940 (12%) | ₹11,69,423 | ₹15,290 |
| LXT RWD Diesel MT | ₹12,69,500 | ₹1,77,730 (14%) | ₹15,19,358 | ₹19,866 |
| LXT RWD Petrol AT | ₹14,49,500 | ₹2,02,930 (14%) | ₹17,32,658 | ₹22,655 |

What Makes Up the On-Road Price in Telangana
Taking the LXT 4WD Diesel MT at ₹16,08,500 ex-showroom, here is exactly what Telangana adds on top:
| Component | Amount | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Ex-showroom price | ₹16,08,500 | Manufacturer price, Delhi |
| Telangana road tax | ₹2,25,190 | 14% of ex-showroom (diesel) |
| Insurance (first year) | ₹56,298 | ~3.5% comprehensive, estimate |
| Registration & handling | ₹15,000 | RTO fee, HSRP, FASTag |
| TCS | ₹16,085 | 1% — ex-showroom above ₹10,00,000, Sec 206C(1F) |
| On-road price | ₹19,21,073 | Total payable |
Telangana note: 20% on cars above ₹20 lakh; +₹5,000 road-safety cess (from March 2026). EVs exempt.
TCS is not a cost — it is tax collected at source and is creditable against your income tax liability when you file your return. The road tax, however, is a genuine sunk cost and it is the single largest state-level variable in the price you pay.
The Slab Trap in Telangana
Telangana applies road tax in price slabs, not as a flat percentage. The LXT 4WD Diesel MT sits above the ₹10,00,000 slab boundary, so it is taxed at 14% rather than the 12% that applies below that line. A variant priced just under ₹10,00,000 attracts meaningfully less tax — which means the cheaper variant can save you more than the sticker difference suggests. Worth checking before you commit to a higher trim for one or two features.
Thar On-Road Price: Telangana vs Other States
The same LXT 4WD Diesel MT, registered in eight different states. The spread between the cheapest and dearest is ₹2,25,190 — on an identical car:
| State | Road tax | On-road price | vs Telangana |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gujarat | ₹96,510 (6%) | ₹17,92,393 | −₹1,28,680 |
| Uttar Pradesh | ₹1,60,850 (10%) | ₹18,56,733 | −₹64,340 |
| Rajasthan | ₹1,76,935 (11%) | ₹18,72,818 | −₹48,255 |
| Delhi | ₹2,01,063 (12.5%) | ₹18,96,946 | −₹24,127 |
| Maharashtra | ₹2,25,190 (14%) | ₹19,21,073 | — |
| Telangana (this page) | ₹2,25,190 (14%) | ₹19,21,073 | — |
| Karnataka | ₹2,73,445 (17%) | ₹19,69,328 | +₹48,255 |
| Tamil Nadu | ₹3,21,700 (20%) | ₹20,17,583 | +₹96,510 |
You must register a vehicle in the state where you ordinarily reside, so this table is not a shopping list — it is context for what you are actually paying, and it matters if you are about to relocate. Moving a car to a new state means re-registering there and paying that state's road tax again, with only a partial refund of the original. Factor that in before an inter-state move.
