The fine print
- Road tax (exempt for electric cars)

Fitted slope 0.00% with a Rs 2,000 fixed component and zero residual across all 26, which is an exemption plus a flat charge rather than a rate. The exemption is an incentive of the Odisha EV Policy 2021, reported extended on 03-10-2026 to 31-12-2026 under its para 11.5; neither that notification nor any Odisha instrument has been read

- 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.
- Odisha'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.
- Odisha's electric-car exemption runs until 31 December 2026 as it stands today.
