Is the dearer City worth it in Karnataka?
The best-covered upgrade on this car is SV 1.5 Petrol MT to V 1.5 Petrol MT. In Karnataka that costs ₹1,88,575 more on the road — against ₹1,50,800 ex-showroom, because road tax is banded on the sticker price — and it adds ₹1,24,000 of equipment we price, 82% of the ex-showroom rise.

Honda City on-road price in Bengaluru (Bangalore) and across Karnataka
These are the figures for every city in Karnataka. Road tax is set by the state, not the city, so the SV 1.5 Petrol MT costs the same ₹15,04,575 to put on the road in Bengaluru as it does in Belagavi. The only thing that moves between showrooms is the dealer handling charge, which is not a published figure — so it is not in any total on this page.

What Karnataka charges
Karnataka bands the rate by ex-showroom price, from 13% to 18%. Karnataka also charges an 11% cess on the tax and a ₹1,000 registration cess. The SV 1.5 Petrol MT pays ₹2,03,983 of road tax and ₹23,438 of those levies on its ₹11,99,900 ex-showroom price, plus ₹2,160 of cess — the ₹2,29,581 the table shows. That cess is 0.18% of ex-showroom, and we bill it because it appears at exactly that rate on every invoice we checked, in all 36 states and union territories. We have not found the notification that sets it, so we describe it rather than name it.
| Ex-showroom band | Petrol | Diesel | CNG |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to ₹5,00,000 | 13% | 14% | 13% |
| ₹5,00,000 – ₹10,00,000 | 14% | 14% | 14% |
| ₹10,00,000 – ₹20,00,000 | 17% | 17% | 17% |
| Above ₹20,00,000 | 18% | 18% | 17% |
Karnataka taxes diesel up to 1 percentage point higher than petrol, so the same trim costs more to register on that fuel here than the ex-showroom gap suggests.
