What owners typically pay

Comet EV — reported cost pattern

Across the 8 cities we track, basic-service quotes for the Comet EV at authorised centres typically range from ₹1,800 to ₹2,240 — the spread comes down to city labour rates and whether the centre bundles in extra add-ons. Owners who ask for an itemised job card before authorising work consistently land at the lower end of that range. Our estimates are built from market research across authorised and multi-brand centres — see our methodology for how we calculate these figures.

Comet EV service tips

Know before you go

A basic Comet EV service should cost ₹1,800–₹2,800. If the quote is higher, ask for a line-item breakdown — additives and unnecessary "top-up services" are the common inflators.

Use the correct oil

The Comet EV is spec'd for N/A (Electric). Don't let service centres upsell to premium grades unless your variant specifically requires them.

Go multi-brand after warranty

Once the 3 years / unlimited km warranty ends, multi-brand garages can save ₹800–₹2,500 per service. Look for mechanics with MG Motor experience and Denso/Bosch-certified parts.
