Mr Ambani has bought the ultra-premium Rolls Royce Cullinan, with the Tuscan Sun colour palette. Its special colour has added significantly to the costly price of the SUV. Reliance Industry Ltd. has paid Rs 20 lakh in tax, with an additional Rs 40,000 road safety tax.

When it first launched in 2018, the Rolls Royce Cullinan’s base variant was priced at Rs 6.95 crore. Auto experts suggest the substantial rise in the car’s price is a result of the customised modifications.

Mr Ambani has also splurged Rs 12 lakh to get a special registration number that must end in “0001”. The normal price people pay for VIP numbers is somewhere around Rs 4 lakh but Reliance Industries Ltd. has spent thrice the amount. Apparently, the Regional Transport Office (RTO) had to start a new series for the number Mr Ambani needed. If the report by PTI is to be believed, Ambani’s new Rolls Royce Cullinan has been registered in the name of Reliance Industries Ltd. and is perhaps the most expensive car purchase ever in India.
