What Tamil Nadu charges
Tamil Nadu charges no road tax on an electric car (the concession runs until 31 December 2027). The XE 26 kWh pays ₹0 of road tax on its ₹12,49,000 ex-showroom price, plus ₹2,248 of cess — the ₹2,248 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.
