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.
  • Battery-rental EVs (battery leased separately) pay 10% regardless of value; not modelled. Kerala is also reported to have revised its electric rates in the 2026 Finance Act, which we have not been able to read yet, so this tax line is the last figure we could verify rather than today's. Confirm it with your dealer, especially above Rs 40 lakh, where the reported change is upward.

Confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.

Where these figures come from
Two figures here are weaker than the rest: the road tax and the road safety cess are what Kerala is reported to charge, not something we could read in a notification. Treat those lines as indicative and confirm them with your dealer. Everything else is computed from Kerala's own documents, last checked . Rates change with state budgets, so confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.
