Alpha 61 kWh costs ₹2,05,000 more than Zeta 61 kWh and brings 8 features we value at ₹2,09,000 — 101% of what you pay, so the equipment alone covers the price rise. If you want any of them, this is the trim to buy.

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.
