So in this scenario, if you use more than one litre a day, then you need to spend more money on petrol. For example, if you use 2 litres a day, then the calculation will go on as Rs.206.24 X 365= Rs.75,277.6.
What you are spending on petrol price is Rs.39,357.95 (1 litre per day) in which you can buy TNR electric scooters which start from Rs 69,000. With the petrol price Rs.75,277.60 (2 litres per day) you can buy TNR Zooba at Rs.69,000, TNR Turner Ex at Rs.79,000, TNR Turner Classic at Rs.75,500 and TNR Jetter Classic at Rs.89,500.
