Indicative range for a hatchback or sedan in Delhi NCR. Your quote depends on your car and the workshop — you see itemised prices before booking.
A periodic service is the routine maintenance your car needs at fixed intervals — usually every 10,000 km or once a year, whichever comes first. It is the single cheapest thing you can do to avoid expensive repairs later, and the one most often skipped because nobody enjoys ringing round garages for quotes.

Car Service & Maintenance — common questions
How often should a car be serviced in India?
Most manufacturers specify every 10,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first. In heavy city traffic — a lot of idling and short trips — every 8,000 km is safer, because engine oil degrades on running hours as much as on distance.
What is the difference between a general service and a full service?
A general service covers oil, filters and a safety inspection. A full service adds items on a longer interval: spark plugs, brake fluid replacement, throttle body cleaning and wheel alignment. A full service is usually due every second or third visit.
Does servicing outside the dealership void my warranty?
No. Under Indian consumer law a manufacturer cannot void your warranty simply because you serviced elsewhere, as long as the work is done properly and to schedule with the right grade of parts and oil. Keep the invoice and the service record.
