Around ₹15,207 one way for a petrol sedan (fuel ₹11,352 + toll ₹3,855), or ₹29,808 for a same-day return. Split between four people that is ₹3,802 each, one way.
Plan on about 25 h 5 min including short breaks. Free-flowing traffic can do it in 17 h 57 min, but towns, trucks and plaza queues usually add time.
One way with FASTag: bus/2-axle truck ₹12,770, 3-axle ₹16,060, 4–6 axle ₹20,385, 7+ axle ₹24,025 (includes estimates for plazas without published fees).
Yes, plazas charge the same fee in both directions, so the Shimla to Nashik toll is the same ~₹3,855 for a car. Fuel cost differs only if you fill up at Shimla's state price.
Fees are revised every 1 April and some plazas change mid-year, so treat results as a close estimate. Spotted a wrong fee or a missing plaza? Tell us — we fix reported errors within 72 hours and log them on our corrections page.
