What the VXi CNG MT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the VXi CNG MT comes to ₹11,43,780 on the road in Itanagar and ₹13,17,128 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹1,73,348 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 ₹10.86L ex-showroom this is the third of 9 Ertiga variants by price, ₹96,000 above the VXi Petrol Mild Hybrid MT. The same VXi features start at ₹96,000 less as the VXi Petrol Mild Hybrid MT; the extra here buys the CNG with the 5-speed manual. Stepping up to ZXi from here starts at ₹11,000 more and buys wheel type (Alloy against Steel) and 7" touchscreen among 5 additions. That price is a different engine or gearbox though: keeping the CNG with the 5-speed manual, the ZXi starts at ₹11.93L.
