Ways to spend less on this trip

₹Where to fill up

Petrol is cheapest in Karnataka (₹111.30/L) and dearest in Kerala (₹114.57/L). Filling the ~23 litres you need in Karnataka saves about ₹76 versus buying it all in Kerala.

⚡Petrol vs diesel vs EV

For the same sedan, fuel for one way costs ₹2,585 on petrol, ₹1,819 on diesel and about ₹995 on electric (public fast charging at ₹20/kWh; home charging is far cheaper). An EV with ~350 km real range needs about 1 charging stop on the way.

◎Is the FASTag Annual Pass worth it here?

The pass costs ₹3,075 for 200 crossings (₹15.38 per crossing) on NHAI plazas. This trip uses 2 crossings one way — worth about ₹31 of pass value against ₹150 in regular fees. If you drive highways often, the pass pays off on this route.

↺Coming back the same day?

Return within 24 hours and the car toll for the round trip is ₹230 instead of ₹300 — a 23% discount that FASTag applies automatically.
