FASTag
Tag cost only. Issuers add a deposit and minimum balance; dealer bundles commonly total Rs 500-600.
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 on 2026-08-07. Rates change with state budgets, so confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.
