AX7L 2.2 Diesel AT 4WD costs ₹1,85,500 more than AX5L 2.2 Diesel AT 4WD and brings 8 features we value at ₹1,16,850, roughly 62% of the price difference. Reasonable if you specifically want what it adds; not a bargain.

We price the equipment that separates these two trims. The rest of the difference pays for things we don't itemise — materials, fit and finish, and the manufacturer's own margin. An upgrade that clears 100% is one where the equipment alone is worth what it costs.
