Worth knowing before you sign

  • The step from the King Turbo Petrol AT to the King Knight Edition Diesel AT crosses Karnataka's ₹20 lakh line: ₹23,000 more ex-showroom, but ₹24,050 more road tax, because the whole price moves from 17% to 18%.
  • The E Diesel MT is ₹2,03,779 more on the road here than the E Petrol MT, and ₹32,079 of that is Karnataka's road tax.
  • On the Hyundai Creta E Petrol MT, Bengaluru is the dearest of the 25 states we price it in, level with Karnataka: ₹1,74,142 over Arunachal Pradesh.

Which Creta to buy

Of every paid step up this ladder, EX(O) to S(O) buys you the most for your money. In Bengaluru that step costs ₹1,28,261 on the road, rather than the ₹1,07,000 the showroom prices suggest.

Comprehensive own-damage cover
Not in this total. Lenders require it and most buyers take it, but it has been market-priced since 2007 and varies widely with insurer, cover value and no-claim bonus, so an honest single figure does not exist. Budget for it from real quotes on top of this total.

Confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.

Where these figures come from
One figure here is weaker than the rest: the transport workers' welfare cess is what Karnataka is reported to charge, not something we could read in a notification. Treat that line as indicative and confirm it with your dealer. The cess on the vehicle tax comes from Karnataka's own pages rather than the notifications behind it. Everything else is computed from Karnataka's own documents, last checked . Rates change with state budgets, so confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.

₹1,85,470 on the E Petrol MT at ₹10.91L ex-showroom. The rate comes from Karnataka's own schedule (Karnataka MV Taxation Act 1957, Schedule Part A5; read from the department's 2020 schedule compilation AND the Part A5 re-enactment in L.A. Bill 12 of 2026, which agree), verified on 7 August 2026.

Is the Hyundai Creta cheaper on-road in another city of Karnataka?

No. Karnataka sets these charges, so the same figures apply in Mysuru, Mangaluru, Hubballi and Belagavi: registering in a different city of the state does not change them.

Which number plate series does the Hyundai Creta registered in Bengaluru get?

Cars registered in Bengaluru carry KA-01, KA-02, KA-03, KA-04, KA-05, KA-41, KA-43, KA-50, KA-51, KA-53 or KA-59 plates, depending on which RTO office covers your address. The series belongs to the office, not the car, so every vehicle registered there wears it (Karnataka Transport Department, Regional and Assistant Regional Transport Officers directory, Bengaluru Urban Division section; the live site refused connections, so verified from the Wayback Machine snapshot of that official page dated 2024-02-05, cross-checked against the 2021-06-19 snapshot, checked 9 August 2026).
