The Tata 1512g LPT costs about Rs 23 lakh to Rs 25.25 lakh ex-showroom. On-road price is higher because RTO tax, insurance and registration get added on top, and those change by state. Ask two or three dealers in your city, because discounts differ.
The Tata 1512g LPT gives about 6.5 km per kg. Your actual figure depends on load, road condition and driving style. With a 486 litre tank, that is roughly 3,159 km on one full tank.
Rated payload is 10,000 kg. Gross vehicle weight is 16,020 kg, which is the truck plus the load together. Stay inside this figure. Overloading breaks springs and tyres early and invites fines at the check post.

Gross vehicle weight is 16,020 kg, or about 16.02 tonnes. GVW is the total allowed weight of the truck plus body plus goods, and it decides which licence and permit you need.
It is mainly used for construction material, industrial goods transportation, fruits and vegetables. If your daily load and route match that kind of work, this truck fits.
It comes with a 5 Speed manual gearbox. A manual gearbox keeps the running cost and the repair bill lower, and most workshops can handle it.
