Tata Tiago EV 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 Smart 19.2 kWh costs the same ₹7,78,103 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 Smart 19.2 kWh pays ₹34,950 of road tax and ₹4,845 of those levies on its ₹6,99,000 ex-showroom price, plus ₹1,258 of cess — the ₹41,053 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 Tata Tiago EV, one variant does this.
Pure+ 24 kWh → Creative+ 24 kWh
₹45,000 more ex-showroom becomes ₹93,518 more on the road — ₹48,518 of it from crossing the ₹10,00,000 line, where the rate goes from 5% to 8% and 1% TCS starts applying.
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.
