While this state is counted amongst the most developed across the nation. It also has a large network of roadways that spans across the state’s dimensions. The state is responsible for the collection of road taxes from owners of vehicles, across various vehicle classes like transport and non-transport for new as well as used vehicles.

Tax is gathered as a percentage or along a lump sum criterion that covers you throughout its operational life. Owners of vehicles need to pay road taxes when purchasing new or old vehicles.

The revenue comes as amount or fraction of the total cost of vehicle. Gujarat is endowed with one of the simplest structures for road tax in the whole country. This includes a consistent rate for each class of vehicle across various categories. There are no taxes on vehicles utility in agriculture. The same is applicable on auto rickshaws, and carriages for the invalid carriage up to 250 kilograms.

Two-Wheeler

Owners of two-wheeler vehicles have to pay tax at a flat rate of 6% of the vehicle’s cost on all newly bought vehicles and their registration in the state of Gujarat. For vehicles that are up to 8 years old, the road tax is 15% of lump sum tax. For vehicles that are older vehicles, road tax comes to around 1% of lump sum tax paid or INR100, whatever is more.
