How the on-road price is calculated

The on-road price is the total you pay to drive the car home. It starts from the ex-showroom price and adds Tamil Nadu's road tax / RTO (15.0% in Tamil Nadu), registration & handling, first-year insurance, and 1% TCS where the price crosses ₹10 lakh. Because road tax is set by each state, the Defender's on-road price in Chennai differs from other cities.
