The fine print
- Road tax (11.5%)
- Derived 2026-08-07 from CarWale's published on-road breakdown for Lucknow, 10 cars from Rs 3.70L to Rs 59.65L. Above Rs 10 lakh: 6 observations, raw 11.42% to 11.67%, fitted slope 11.41% with Rs 3,362 fixed. Rs 4L to 10L: two observations, raw 9.69% and 9.92%, 9.27% net of that fixed component. Below Rs 4L: one observation at Rs 3.70L, 7.09% net; the boundary was moved down from Rs 6L after three cheap cars in Lucknow came out 7 to 8 points wide of the pack.

- Registration fee (central)
- CMVR Rule 81, as amended by GSR 1183(E) dated 29-12-2016
- TCS (1%, adjustable against your income tax)

- The Rs 15 lakh owner-driver cover is mandatory; this prescribed rate is what most insurers charge for the annual form.
- 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.
- Uttar Pradesh's rates here are derived from published on-road prices rather than read from the state's own schedule, so treat them as indicative and confirm with your dealer.
Confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.
