Today, potholes on the national highway cost me ₹6,470. My tyre got cut, and I had to replace it. We have already paid GST and road tax. So, who will pay for this?🙂

Taxes on vehicles are crazy!!! Tax on sonet 29%. It's 4 meter car. Tax on Seltos 45%. It's 4.3 meter car. Alag se, you have to pay 10-15% RTO. 18% Gst on insurance. You end up paying up to 65% tax!
