MG Hector Tomahawk EV on-road price in Chennai and across Tamil Nadu
These are the figures for every city in Tamil Nadu. Road tax is set by the state, not the city, so the Excite 7S 69.2 kWh costs the same ₹20,73,398 to put on the road in Chennai as it does in Coimbatore. 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 Tamil Nadu charges
Tamil Nadu charges no road tax on an electric car (the concession runs until 31 December 2027). The Excite 7S 69.2 kWh pays ₹0 of road tax on its ₹19,49,800 ex-showroom price, plus ₹3,510 of cess — the ₹3,510 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 | 0% | 12% |
| ₹5,00,000 – ₹10,00,000 | 0% | 13% |
| ₹10,00,000 – ₹20,00,000 | 0% | 18% |
| Above ₹20,00,000 | 0% | 20% |
The tax boundary to watch in Tamil Nadu
Tamil Nadu 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 MG Hector Tomahawk EV, one variant does this.
Excite 7S 69.2 kWh → Exclusive 7S 69.2 kWh
₹2,50,000 more ex-showroom becomes ₹2,65,450 more on the road — ₹15,450 of it from crossing the ₹20,00,000 line, where the rate goes from 0% to 0%.
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 Tamil Nadu these upgrades cost more than that.
