The Honda Shine 125 is priced between Rs 82,449 and Rs 87,838 ex-showroom in Delhi (2025-2026). These are manufacturer-listed prices before state taxes and registration - what you actually pay at the showroom will be higher once road tax, insurance, and dealer charges are added.

Ex-showroom prices by variant (Delhi):
- Shine Drum: Rs 82,449
- Shine Disc: Rs 86,809
- Shine Limited Edition: Rs 87,838

On-road prices in key cities vary significantly because road tax rates differ state by state. Maharashtra levies a flat rate, Karnataka applies a higher percentage, and Delhi keeps road tax relatively moderate.

Approximate on-road prices (Drum variant):
- Delhi: Rs 94,800-96,000
- Mumbai: Rs 1,03,000-1,05,000
- Bangalore: Rs 99,800-1,02,000
- Hyderabad: Rs 1,04,000-1,06,000
- Chennai: Rs 1,01,000-1,03,000

The on-road price typically adds Rs 12,000-22,000 over ex-showroom, covering road tax (9-13% depending on state), third-party insurance (mandatory, approximately Rs 4,000-5,000 per year), own-damage insurance (optional but recommended, approximately Rs 2,500-3,500), and dealer/handling charges (typically Rs 3,000-3,500).

Is the Shine 125 priced fairly? At Rs 82,449 base, the Shine sits mid-range for the 125cc commuter segment. The Hero Splendor Plus starts around Rs 77,000 on a smaller 97cc engine, the Bajaj Pulsar 125 is available from around Rs 79,000, and the TVS Raider 125 starts around Rs 82,000. Honda's premium is justified by its engine refinement, service network density, and stronger resale values.

Note: Prices are ex-showroom. On-road price varies by city (RTO charges, insurance, etc.).

Before visiting a showroom, check the dealer's current exchange offer - Honda frequently runs exchange bonuses of Rs 2,000-5,000 on used bikes across its dealership network. Corporate and loyalty discounts are also available in some states.

For insurance, the mandatory third-party cover costs Rs 4,000-5,000 per year for a 125cc bike under current IRDAI rates. Own-damage insurance is optional but recommended for the first three years - expect to pay Rs 2,500-3,500 annually for a comprehensive plan.

EMI buyers should compare financing from multiple sources before signing. SBI Autos and HDFC sometimes offer better interest rates than in-dealership options, especially if you hold a salary account with them.
