The diesel engine is only available in the top two variants - VX and ZX. The price jump for the diesel engine over the petrol variant is Rs. 1.3 lakh for VX and Rs. 90,000 for the ZX variant. At first glance, the price gap seems reasonable for such a big car from D-segment. But, it’s worth noting that the petrol model is available with automatic transmission, while the diesel engine gets a manual transmission.
Normally, upgrading from a petrol MT to automatic or diesel MT costs about the same. If you assume about Rs. 1.2 lakh cost of the CVT, then you’re effectively paying around Rs. 2.2 - 2.5 lakh for upgrading to the diesel engine.
In comparison, the Hyundai Elantra is not only offering the upgrade to the diesel engine at a reasonable cost but also a wider range of engine and transmission combinations to pick from. Here are the prices of the 2020 Hyundai Elantra BS6 petrol and diesel:

Perhaps the price you’re paying here is for the better performance of the diesel engine. With 300Nm of torque, the Civic diesel has an impressive torque-to-weight ratio of 221Nm/tonne. The BS6 2020 Elantra diesel’s torque-to-weight ratio is 179 and 184Nm/tonne for the manual and automatic transmissions, respectively.
