What Makes Up the On-Road Price in Delhi
Taking the Neon at ₹82,900 ex-showroom, here is exactly what Delhi and the insurer add on top:
| Component | Amount | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Ex-showroom price | ₹82,900 | Manufacturer price, Delhi |
| Delhi road tax | ₹6,632 | 8% of ex-showroom |
| Third-party insurance (5 yr) | ₹3,570 | IRDAI-fixed, 76–150cc band — paid upfront |
| Own-damage cover (1 yr) | ₹1,244 | ~1.5% of ex-showroom, estimate |
| Registration & smart card | ₹3,000 | RTO fee, HSRP, estimate |
| On-road price | ₹97,346 | Total payable |
Delhi note: EV two-wheelers exempt from road tax in Delhi.
Why Insurance Costs What It Does on a 124cc Machine
This is where two-wheeler pricing diverges sharply from cars. Third-party cover is compulsory, and since September 2018 a new two-wheeler must be insured for five years of third-party liability upfront. IRDAI fixes that premium by engine capacity rather than by price:
| Engine capacity | 5-year TP premium | Applies here? |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 75cc | ₹2,690 | — |
| 76–150cc | ₹3,570 | Yes |
| 151–350cc | ₹6,830 | — |
| Above 350cc | ₹14,020 | — |
The Pulsar 125 is 124cc, so it sits in the 76–150cc band at ₹3,570. Added to own-damage cover of ₹1,244, total insurance is ₹4,814 — 4.9% of the on-road price. Because the third-party half is a flat amount, it weighs far more heavily on an inexpensive commuter than on a large-capacity machine, and it is the main reason a ₹60,000 bike rarely leaves the showroom under ₹70,000.
The Slab Trap in Delhi
Delhi applies two-wheeler road tax in price slabs rather than as a flat percentage. The Neon sits above the ₹60,000 boundary, so it is taxed at 8% instead of the 6% that applies below that line. A variant priced just under ₹60,000 attracts proportionally less tax, so the cheaper trim can save you more than its sticker difference suggests. Worth checking before you pay up for a higher variant.
Pulsar 125 On-Road Price: Delhi vs Other States
The same Neon, registered in eight different states. The spread between cheapest and dearest is ₹6,632 on an identical machine:
| State | Road tax | On-road price | vs Delhi |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gujarat | ₹3,316 (4%) | ₹94,030 | −₹3,316 |
| Rajasthan | ₹4,974 (6%) | ₹95,688 | −₹1,658 |
| Tamil Nadu | ₹6,632 (8%) | ₹97,346 | — |
| Delhi (this page) | ₹6,632 (8%) | ₹97,346 | — |
| Uttar Pradesh | ₹6,632 (8%) | ₹97,346 | — |
| Maharashtra | ₹9,119 (11%) | ₹99,833 | +₹2,487 |
| Karnataka | ₹9,948 (12%) | ₹1,00,662 | +₹3,316 |
| Telangana | ₹9,948 (12%) | ₹1,00,662 | +₹3,316 |
Two-wheeler road tax ranges from a flat 4% in Gujarat to 12–13% in Karnataka and Telangana, and because the insurance and registration components are effectively fixed, road tax is the only part of the on-road price that moves when you cross a state line.
Financing the Pulsar 125 in Delhi
At ₹97,346 on-road, the loan maths on the Neon:
| Down payment | Loan amount | EMI (3yr @ 10.5%) | Total interest |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10% (₹9,735) | ₹87,611 | ₹2,848 | ₹14,902 |
| 20% (₹19,469) | ₹77,877 | ₹2,531 | ₹13,246 |
| 30% (₹29,204) | ₹68,142 | ₹2,215 | ₹11,590 |
| 40% (₹38,938) | ₹58,408 | ₹1,898 | ₹9,935 |
Two-wheeler loans are priced above car loans — typically 10–14% against 8.5–9.5% — and lenders rarely go beyond three years, so the interest burden is front-loaded and heavy relative to the ticket size. Check what you can service in the loan eligibility calculator, compare lenders on the loan comparison tool, and read the two-wheeler loan guide before accepting a dealer-arranged scheme. If you are weighing a bigger down payment, the trade-offs are worked through in the down payment guide.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the on-road price of the Bajaj Pulsar 125 in Delhi?
In Delhi the Bajaj Pulsar 125 costs between ₹94,608 and ₹1,00,083 on-road, depending on variant. That covers the ex-showroom price, Delhi road tax at 8% for the Neon, the IRDAI-mandated 5-year third-party premium of ₹3,570 for a 124cc machine, own-damage cover at roughly 1.5% of ex-showroom, and about ₹3,000 of registration and smart-card charges.
How much is road tax on the Pulsar 125 in Delhi?
Delhi charges 8% road tax on the Neon, which is ₹6,632. Two-wheeler road tax is set by each state and is slab-based on ex-showroom price. EV two-wheelers exempt from road tax in Delhi. Rates are as of June 2026 — confirm with your local RTO before purchase.
Why is insurance such a large part of a 124cc bike's on-road price?
Because the third-party component is a flat rupee amount, not a percentage. IRDAI fixes the 5-year TP premium by engine capacity — ₹3,570 for the 76–150cc band this Pulsar 125 falls in — and you pay all five years upfront at purchase. On the Neon at ₹82,900 ex-showroom, total insurance is ₹4,814, or 4.9% of the on-road price. The cheaper the machine, the larger that fixed premium looms in the total.
Do two-wheelers attract the 1% TCS that cars do?
No. The 1% tax collected at source under Section 206C(1F) applies to motor vehicles above ₹10 lakh, and in practice that means cars. No two-wheeler sold in India reaches that threshold, so TCS never appears on a bike or scooter invoice. This is one reason the gap between ex-showroom and on-road is proportionally narrower on two-wheelers than on cars.
Is the Pulsar 125 cheaper to register in another state?
Gujarat is the cheapest of the 8 states compared here at ₹94,030 on-road for the Neon, against ₹97,346 in Delhi — a difference of ₹3,316. You must register a vehicle where you ordinarily reside, so this is context rather than a shopping option: moving the bike later means re-registering and paying the new state's road tax again.
What EMI would the Pulsar 125 cost in Delhi?
On the Neon at ₹97,346 on-road in Delhi, a 20% down payment of ₹19,469 leaves a loan of ₹77,877. At 10.5% over 3 years that is an EMI of ₹2,531. Two-wheeler loans are priced above car loans and usually capped at 3 years, so the EMI is high relative to the ticket size — use the calculator above to model a different structure.
Can I get a two-wheeler loan with no down payment?
Some dealers advertise zero-down-payment schemes, and they are usually more expensive than they look: the financed amount rises, and the rate is often higher than a standard 20%-down loan. Because the bike depreciates fastest in its first year, a zero-down loan also leaves you owing more than the machine is worth for most of the tenure. Read the two-wheeler loan guide before signing a dealer-arranged scheme.
