The on-road price of {{bike}} in {{city}}, {{state}} is {{on_road}}. Here's exactly how that number is built up:

**Ex-showroom price**: {{ex_showroom}} - this is what Hero charges before taxes and registration. It's the price you'll see quoted on most comparison websites.

**Road Tax (RTO)**: {{rto}} - {{state}} levies road tax at {{rto_percent}} of the ex-showroom price. RTO charges are paid to the Regional Transport Office at the time of registration and vary significantly from state to state. Some states like Kerala charge among the highest RTO in India; others like Himachal Pradesh are among the lowest.

**Insurance**: {{insurance_total}} - This combines third-party insurance ({{tp_insurance}}) which is mandatory under Indian law, and own-damage insurance ({{od_insurance}}) which protects your scooter against theft, accidents, and natural calamities. Hero's dealers typically bundle both when you buy new.

**Dealer / handling charges**: {{other_charges}} - Covers registration paperwork, delivery inspection, and dealer processing. This is largely fixed at ₹3,500 across most Hero dealerships.

So the total on-road price you'll pay to bring the {{model}} home in {{city}} works out to **{{on_road}}**. This is what you hand over - nothing more should be added unless you opt for accessories or extended warranty.

On this budget, consider whether to take the base VX or stretch to the ZX+. The ZX+ costs roughly ₹10,000 more ex-showroom, which translates to about ₹11,000 - ₹12,000 more on-road once RTO is applied. Given the disc brake and Bluetooth you gain, it's often worth it.
