The fine print

Road tax (6%): Derived 2026-08-09 from two independent sources. CarDekho Shillong: exactly 6.00% to about Rs 15L, 8.00% from Rs 15.50L to Rs 19.91L, 10.00% (23 cars) Rs 20.22L to Rs 48.69L. CarWale Shillong fits 6.47% (9 cars to Rs 14.51L), 8.00% (4 cars Rs 17.99L to 19.72L) and 10.38% (5 cars Rs 23.33L to 59.65L), agreeing on both boundaries. Two models in this city serve a 10.00% fallback and were excluded after refetching the range with four others. NOT read from any Meghalaya notification
Registration fee (central): CMVR Rule 81, as amended by GSR 1183(E) dated 29-12-2016
Third-party insurance (3 years, incl. 18% GST): Motor Vehicles (Third Party Insurance Base Premium and Liability) Rules 2022, G.S.R. 394(E) dated 25-05-2022, as amended by G.S.R. 32(E) dated 05-01-2024; both gazettes read from egazette.gov.in. PA cover per IRDAI circular IRDAI/NL/CIR/MOTP/158/09/2018
Personal accident cover (1 year, incl. 18% GST): Motor Vehicles (Third Party Insurance Base Premium and Liability) Rules 2022, G.S.R. 394(E) dated 25-05-2022, as amended by G.S.R. 32(E) dated 05-01-2024; both gazettes read from egazette.gov.in. PA cover per IRDAI circular IRDAI/NL/CIR/MOTP/158/09/2018; 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.

Meghalaya's rates here are derived from two published price sources that agree, not 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.

Where these figures come from

One figure here is weaker than the rest: the road tax is what Meghalaya 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 Meghalaya's own documents, last checked on 2026-08-09. Rates change with state budgets, so confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.
