Frequently Asked Questions
Everything people usually ask before booking a car rental.
What is the cost of car rental per day in India?
Car rental rates in India start from ₹999/day for a hatchback (self-drive) and ₹1,500/day for a chauffeur-driven sedan. SUVs start from ₹2,500/day. Rates vary by city, vehicle type, and whether it is self-drive or with driver. Outstation trips are typically charged per km (₹12–18/km). Get a free quote on TransRentals for your specific route.
What documents are required to rent a car in India?
For self-drive: valid driving licence (minimum 1 year old), Aadhaar Card or Passport as ID proof, and a refundable security deposit. For chauffeur-driven: any valid government ID is sufficient — no DL required from the customer. International tourists need an IDP (International Driving Permit) along with their home country licence.
What is the difference between self-drive and chauffeur-driven car rental?
Self-drive means you drive the car yourself — ideal for road trips, flexible schedules, and lower cost. Chauffeur-driven means a professional driver comes with the car — ideal for airport transfers, business travel, weddings, and outstation trips where you want to relax. Both options are available across 250+ cities on TransRentals.
Can I take a rental car for an outstation trip from one city to another?
Yes, outstation one-way and round-trip bookings are available. Popular routes: Delhi–Agra (230 km), Mumbai–Pune (150 km), Bangalore–Mysore (150 km). One-way rentals are 30–40% cheaper than round trips. Confirm outstation permission with the vendor before booking.
What is typically included in the car rental price?
Standard inclusions vary by booking type. Self-drive packages include vehicle + km allowance (100–300 km/day). Chauffeur-driven includes vehicle + driver + driver allowance. Extra charges typically apply for: excess km, airport toll surcharges, night driving charges, and inter-state permits. Check the quote summary carefully before confirming.
Are there any age restrictions for renting a car in India?
For self-drive: minimum age is 18 years with a valid DL. Most vendors prefer renters above 21 for SUV categories. DL must be at least 1 year old. For chauffeur-driven, there is no age restriction for the passenger.
What happens if the rental car breaks down during the trip?
All TransRentals-listed vendors provide 24/7 roadside assistance. In case of a breakdown, call the vendor immediately — they will arrange for on-road support or a replacement vehicle depending on availability. Document the breakdown with photos before any assistance arrives.
Is fuel included in the car rental price?
For self-drive: fuel is typically NOT included — most vendors operate on a full-to-full policy (you receive the car with a full tank and return it full). For chauffeur-driven outstation trips: fuel is included in the per-km rate. For local city packages (8 hr / 80 km): fuel may or may not be included — confirm at booking.
