What the Techno Turbo Petrol 163 PS MT costs on the road
The price above is the sticker. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the Techno Turbo Petrol 163 PS MT comes to ₹15,21,300 on the road in Itanagar and ₹17,52,256 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,30,956 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.

- Is the Techno the right Duster to buy?
- That depends on where the value sits across the whole range rather than on this trim alone, and we work it out variant by variant on our Renault Duster which-variant page. The short version: pay for a step only where the kit it adds is kit you would actually use.
