Worth knowing before you sign

  • The step from the HTE (O) Diesel AT to the HTK+ Diesel MT crosses Maharashtra's ₹10 lakh line: ₹56,000 more ex-showroom, but ₹17,840 more road tax, because the whole price moves from 13% to 14%.
  • The HTE (O) Diesel MT is ₹2,13,514 more on the road here than the HTE Petrol MT, and ₹38,414 of that is Maharashtra's road tax.
  • On the Kia Sonet HTE Petrol MT, Mumbai is 6th dearest of 25 states: ₹61,231 over Arunachal Pradesh and ₹33,179 under Karnataka.

Which Sonet to buy

Of every paid step up this ladder, HTK+ (O) to HTX buys you the most for your money. In Mumbai that step costs ₹84,930 on the road, rather than the ₹75,000 the showroom prices suggest.

Comprehensive own-damage cover

  • Figures are for an individual's first personal car; company-registered cars pay 20% in Maharashtra.
  • The department's own rate page shows a 11% top-band typo against the schedule's 13% pattern; the schedule value is used.

Confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.

Where these figures come from
The road tax comes from Maharashtra's own transport department pages rather than from the notification behind it, which is the state's published position one step removed from the instrument. Everything else is computed from Maharashtra's own documents, last checked . Rates change with state budgets, so confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.
