Worth knowing before you sign

  • The Z2 Diesel MT is ₹58,000 more on the road here than the Z2 Turbo Petrol MT, and ₹7,500 of that is Kerala's road tax.
  • On the Mahindra Scorpio-N Z2 Turbo Petrol MT, Kozhikode is 5th dearest of 25 states: ₹1,64,480 over Arunachal Pradesh and ₹53,780 under Karnataka.

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 road safety cess is what Kerala 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 Kerala's own documents, last checked . Rates change with state budgets, so confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.
