If you are on a strict budget and value safety above everything else, here’s a list of the safest cars under Rs. 6.0 lakh in India that you can buy currently.

Earlier, the cars tested under GNCAP’s Safer Cars For India program were rated based on their frontal impact tests only. However, post June 2022, cars are now rated based on both front and side impacts, in addition to active safety features.
