You have decided to purchase a specific model of a specific car. The cost of the car is Rs. 3,53,000, and charges for registration & tax, insurance, and number plates are additional. The on-road price is cost of the car plus these additional charges. You pay the on-road price. You have also decided to take a loan of Rs. 200,000 to purchase the car. You have contacted four dealers in Delhi to find out the prices, loan availability, etc. You have found that some dealers provide discounts, while some pay for the insurance (of the first year) on your behalf. You have also found that some banks have a tie-up with the dealers, and if the loan is taken from that particular bank, you get bank's discount. You have also found that dealers normally quote the EMI per lakh in case loan is taken from the Dealers (for which they have tie up with banks). Even in case of directly negotiated loan with banks, the banks quote EMI per lakh. Your findings are summarized below. (Amount in Rs.)
