Hyundai Creta Electric 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 Executive 42 kWh costs the same ₹20,78,402 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 an electric car's road tax by ex-showroom price, from 5% to 10%. Karnataka also charges an 11% cess on the tax and a ₹1,000 registration cess. The Executive 42 kWh pays ₹1,44,224 of road tax and ₹16,865 of those levies on its ₹18,02,800 ex-showroom price, plus ₹3,245 of cess — the ₹1,64,334 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 | Electric | Petrol |
|---|---|---|
| Up to ₹5,00,000 | 5% | 13% |
| ₹5,00,000 – ₹10,00,000 | 5% | 14% |
| ₹10,00,000 – ₹20,00,000 | 8% | 17% |
| ₹20,00,000 – ₹25,00,000 | 8% | 18% |
| Above ₹25,00,000 | 10% | 18% |
The tax boundary to watch in Karnataka
Karnataka re-rates the whole price once a car crosses a band, so a small move up the range can cost several times its ex-showroom difference. On the Hyundai Creta Electric, one variant does this.
Executive (O) 51.4 kWh → Excellence 42 kWh
₹1,30,600 more ex-showroom becomes ₹1,50,268 more on the road — ₹19,668 of it from crossing the ₹20,00,000 line, where the rate goes from 8% to 8%.
Worth knowing before you pick a trim: our verdict on whether the equipment justifies the gap is based on the ex-showroom difference, and in Karnataka these upgrades cost more than that.
