What the ZXi Petrol MT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the ZXi Petrol MT comes to ₹8,62,030 on the road in Itanagar and ₹9,66,234 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹1,04,204 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.

It does not include comprehensive own-damage cover, which every insurer prices differently.

- Is the ZXi the right Dzire to buy?
