What Makes Up the On-Road Price in Karnataka
Taking the ZXi Petrol MT at ₹5,95,900 ex-showroom, here is exactly what Karnataka adds on top:
| Component | Amount | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Ex-showroom price | ₹5,95,900 | Manufacturer price, Delhi |
| Karnataka road tax | ₹83,426 | 14% of ex-showroom (petrol) |
| Insurance (first year) | ₹20,857 | ~3.5% comprehensive, estimate |
| Registration & handling | ₹15,000 | RTO fee, HSRP, FASTag |
| On-road price | ₹7,15,183 | Total payable |
Karnataka note: Among the highest in India; +11% cess on the tax plus a welfare cess. 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 Karnataka
Karnataka applies road tax in price slabs, not as a flat percentage. The ZXi Petrol MT sits above the ₹5,00,000 slab boundary, so it is taxed at 14% rather than the 13% that applies below that line. A variant priced just under ₹5,00,000 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.

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.
