Hyundai Aura On Road Price in Kolkata

At ₹6.87 Lakh on-road, the base E variant offers one of the most affordable entry points into a compact sedan in Kolkata. For buyers whose primary concern is getting behind the wheel of a Hyundai sedan without stretching the budget, this is the logical starting point — a no-frills petrol manual that keeps acquisition costs minimal while still delivering the Aura's core package.

Climbing through the 11-variant lineup, the price ladder adds roughly ₹2.8 Lakh between the E and the range-topping SX CNG at ₹9.65 Lakh. Mid-tier variants bridge the gap with incremental feature additions, and the choice between Petrol-only and CNG-equipped trims is a genuine fork in the decision tree. CNG variants carry a premium upfront but promise significantly lower running costs — a factor that matters more in a metro like Kolkata where daily commute distances and fuel expenses add up over time.

Fuel and transmission choices define the Aura's flexibility. Petrol variants come with either a Manual or an AMT gearbox, the latter being particularly relevant for Kolkata's stop-and-go traffic conditions. CNG trims are paired with the manual transmission. Buyers who prioritize ease of driving in congested city stretches should weigh the AMT option seriously, while those focused on long-term fuel economy will find the CNG variants compelling.

West Bengal applies a tiered road tax structure: a 5.5% slab for 5-year registration or 10% for 15-year registration across petrol and CNG vehicles in the Aura's engine displacement range. An on-road price is the total amount a buyer pays at the dealership — it includes ex-showroom price, RTO charges, IRDAI-mandated insurance (3-year third-party plus 1-year own damage with PA cover at Zone A metro rates), registration fee of ₹600, HSRP at ₹441, and smart card fee of ₹200. Since no Aura variant crosses ₹10 Lakh ex-showroom, TCS does not apply here.

Notably, West Bengal's policy exempts CNG vehicles from road tax during the policy period, which means the SX CNG's on-road figure already reflects this benefit. This exemption narrows the effective price gap between top petrol and CNG trims — making the CNG upgrade less of a financial stretch than the sticker prices might suggest at first glance.

So which variant fits? Budget-first buyers should look at the E variant as a clean, efficient entry. If Kolkata's traffic has you leaning toward an automatic, an AMT-equipped petrol variant hits a practical sweet spot. And for those doing 50+ km daily or running the car commercially, the CNG lineup — especially the SX CNG — delivers the best long-term value despite its higher upfront cost. Match your daily usage pattern to the variant, and the right Aura essentially picks itself.
