Tripura road tax

In Tripura, road tax is a mandatory fee that every vehicle owner must pay to use public roads legally. This amount helps the government maintain and develop road infrastructure across the state. However, this cost can catch buyers off guard if not considered in advance.

The tax amount is calculated based on several factors, including the vehicle’s price, engine capacity, type, age, and whether it’s a private or commercial vehicle. Ignoring this cost while budgeting for your car can lead to an unexpected financial burden later.

So, when you plan your car purchase, make sure to factor in this expense along with the base price.

Tripura road tax calculation

In Tripura, road tax is calculated by taking into account several important factors. The vehicle’s weight plays a key role, with heavier vehicles usually attracting higher tax rates. The age of the vehicle also affects the tax amount—older vehicles might be taxed differently due to environmental regulations and emissions standards. Moreover, commercial vehicles are subject to higher taxes compared to private passenger cars.

Other aspects that influence the tax include the number of seats, engine capacity, and the vehicle’s overall size, such as its length and width. Larger vehicles like SUVs and trucks typically fall into higher tax brackets. Additionally, the type of fuel your vehicle uses matters—environmentally friendly cars, such as electric or hybrid models, often benefit from reduced tax rates as part of green initiatives.For instance, if you buy a new car with an engine capacity of 1,000 cc and a price of Rs. 8 lakh, the road tax could range from 8-10% of the car's price. This means the road tax could be anywhere between Rs. 64,000 and Rs. 80,000.

Does this seem like a significant expense? The added road tax can sometimes be an unexpected cost when purchasing a car. But what if you could cover the entire cost of the car, including the road tax, with a convenient car loan? Curious about how much you can borrow with a Bajaj Finserv New Car Loan to handle these extra costs? With just a few simple steps, you can easily check the loan amount you're eligible for. Check your new car loan eligibility and take the first step towards owning your new car today.
