The Kerala road tax burden for luxury vehicles — and why it matters
High Kerala Road Tax
Road tax in Kerala is 22% for petrol/diesel cars — among the highest in India.

On a ₹1.9Cr BMW 7 Series, road tax alone is ₹41.80 lakh — before insurance, registration, and accessories.
Huge On-Road Gap
The gap between ex-showroom and on-road price for luxury cars in Kerala is among the highest in India — ₹10–50+ lakh in tax alone.
