Furnish your vehicle No. If so the exact due amount can be furnished.
Annual tax of the vehicle is 6% of the invoice price of the vehicle from 01.04.2007 on wards
cannot convert annual tax to yearly tax
50% of tax is levied as additional Tax
Original price of the vehicle is taken in to account for calculating tax
