Likewise, tax-filer is supposed to pay Rs 5000 as transfer fee on purchase of 1000cc vehicle whereas same stands at Rs 15000 for non-filer.

On 1300cc vehicle, tax-filer would pay Rs 7500 as transfer fee whereas non-filer would pay Rs 25000.

On 3000cc vehicles, tax-filer would pay just Rs 25000 whereas non-filer has to pay mammoth Rs 2.70 lacs.
