2)Interest accrued @10% over the difference for a period of 5years.
3)Maintenance charges R...s2000/- for every 10000km for petrol and 5000km for diesel.
4)Fuel cost Rs 67.33/- for diesel and Rs 44.1 for petrol.
5)(Assumption on) On road mileage ~ 3kms/liter less than the mileage at std conditions.
Based on the above-mentioned points, the break-even happens at ~70000kms, after this the diesel variant becomes profitable.Read More
