You cross 30 toll plazas across Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu. For a car the published fees add up to ₹1,315 one way, about ₹0.93 per km. 12 plazas on this route do not publish fees in the NHAI dataset; budget about ₹960 extra to be safe.
Vashi is free for cars: Cars, jeeps and vans (LMVs) pay no toll at Mumbai's five entry points since 14 October 2024 (Maharashtra government decision). Heavier vehicles still pay.
At 24 h 30 min of realistic driving time, plan an overnight halt roughly halfway — two drivers sharing the wheel is the safer option if you must do it in one day.
