QJ Motor SRC 500 on-road price in Chennai
₹2.57 Lakh on-road for the base variant, against ₹2.1 Lakh ex-showroom.
On the road in Chennai the base SRC 500 comes to ₹2.57 Lakh: ₹2,10,000 ex-showroom, ₹26,700 in Tamil Nadu road tax and registration (12.7%), ₹20,290 for first-year insurance. Dealers add handling and accessory packs on top; both are negotiable.
That is ₹8,400 more than in Delhi (₹2,48,590), mostly because Tamil Nadu charges 12.7% in road tax and registration against Delhi's 8.7%.
Elsewhere in Tamil Nadu the figure is the same to within a few hundred rupees: registration rules are set by the state, so Coimbatore, Erode and Hosur all land at about ₹2.57 Lakh.

With petrol at about ₹100.80 in Chennai and a real-world 31 kmpl, fuel comes to about ₹3.25 per km, or ₹2,536 a month at 30 km a day. Heavy traffic will push mileage to the lower end of the real-world band.
