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.
  • Punjab's rates here are derived from published on-road prices rather than read from the state's own schedule, and Ludhiana appears to add a local charge below Rs 14 lakh that these figures do not include.

Confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.

Where these figures come from
One figure here is weaker than the rest: the road tax is what Punjab is reported to charge, not something we could read in a notification. Treat that line as indicative and confirm it with your dealer. Everything else is computed from Punjab's own documents, last checked . Rates change with state budgets, so confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.
