A quality film from Vkool or 3M should be enough to block the heat from the sun. These films are allowed and only very mildly tinted. They range from 3k-5k.

Go for the ones with around 75% visibility. Those are approved by RTO. No special permit is needed.

From this DNA article

According to the city traffic norms, the windscreen and rear window of every vehicle has to be maintained such that the visual transmission of light is not less than 70%.

And the side windows have to be maintained such that visual transmission of light is not less than 50%.

harshit you can go for a good quality Sun film with higher heat rejection. Lumar, VCool and 3 M offers film with Heat Rejection upto 90% but it would cost around 6k minimum to get your sides and Front screen covered.

'Upto' is a dodgy term. Oh, i wonder what specific conditions actually would give you 90% heat rejection. How tricked out would the test have to be to attain that.

You can have 30% tint on the front & back & 50 on the sides, that means if you do the whole car, the best you can expect is 50%.
