    west bengal road tax
    (Source: telegraphindia)

    An epicentre of culture and history, West Bengal is one of the major eastern states of India. This state is also home to a large populace who have migrated from different parts of the country for better opportunities.

    The state’s capital, Kolkata, is one of the major metropolitan hubs of India. According to a 2019 report, the city was home to more than 1.82 million registered vehicles (1).

    Like any other state, if you possess a vehicle, be it a personal or commercial one, you are liable to pay West Bengal road tax. 

    If you want to know more about it, keep on reading!

    Road Tax in West Bengal

    As per the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, everyone has to pay West Bengal road tax, depending on the make and use of his/her registered vehicle.

    The Government collects this revenue to upkeep and maintain the roads in the state. Along with that, it also ensures the safety of the taxpayers on the road. 

    You can pay your applicable tax at RTOs of the state both online and offline. Thus, first, you need to know how West Bengal Parivahan tax is calculated. 

    How Road Tax is Calculated in West Bengal?

    West Bengal road tax primarily depends on several factors such as vehicle type (two-wheelers, four-wheelers), usage purpose (personal, commercial), model, engine capacity, seating capacity, etc. The vehicle owners can refer to the below-mentioned list to know about the applicable road tax in detail. 

    Road Tax Rates for Two-wheelers in West Bengal

    Primarily, West Bengal vehicle tax for two-wheelers depends on their engine capacity, which is shown in the following chart. Take a look!

    For motorbikes of up to 1 year, the applicable tax would be.

    FAQs about Road Tax in West Bengal

    Why is the on-road price of a vehicle more than ex-showroom price?

On-road price is the final price of a vehicle, and it includes several other components like registration fees, insurance, road tax, etc., additional to ex-showroom price. Thus, the on-road price of a vehicle is higher than its ex-showroom price.
