What the AX3 Diesel AT costs on the road
The price above is the sticker. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the AX3 Diesel AT comes to ₹19,51,258 on the road in Itanagar and ₹22,24,230 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,72,972 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
At ₹18.29L ex-showroom Delhi this is the seventh of 27 XUV 7XO variants by price, ₹50,000 above the AX5 Turbo Petrol MT. The same AX3 kit starts at ₹2.00L less as the AX3 Turbo Petrol MT; the extra here buys the Diesel with the 6-speed torque-converter auto. Worth a hard look before you sign: the cheapest AX5 actually costs ₹50,000 less than this variant and buys front parking sensors and panoramic sunroof. That price is a different engine or gearbox though: keeping the Diesel with the 6-speed torque-converter auto, the AX5 starts at ₹19.79L.
