Tata Punch EV Facelift

Tata Motors’ Punch EV recently made a splash with a facelift that brought updated styling, new features and bigger battery packs. If you are planning to bring home a new Punch EV, then this story is a must-read for you to understand the on-road price of the vehicle. But before you sign the paper, ensure you check out our Punch EV Ultimate Buying Guide.

How Is On-Road Price Calculated?

When you buy a car, the ex-showroom price is what you pay for the car itself. But there are a few more taxes and fees involved before you can actually drive your new car home. These include:

Insurance Premium
TCS (Tax Collected at Source) for cars priced above Rs 10 lakh (ex-showroom)
Road Tax (varies state-to-state)
Registration Fees
Fastag Fees
Accessories (optional)

Money Saving Tip:

Insurance premiums can vary based on offers and other factors. It is one of the component where you can negotiate and save some quick money while booking.

Some states also offer subsidies and road tax waivers for EVs to encourage adoption, which also applies to the Punch EV. Do note that these are indicative figures, and we suggest you contact your local dealership for a better understanding of the on-road price with any extra offers, discounts or accessories that you would like to opt for.

Charger Options:

With the Punch EV, Tata offers a 3.3kW home charger included in the ex-showroom price. You can also opt for a 7.2kW AC fast charger for an additional Rs 49,000.
