how much at the max can be quoted for the car?
An 1994 3-series would be the E36 model, which is a generation out of date (the current model is the E43), and will soon be two generations out of date (the E43 is being replaced this year). I did a web search but nowhere could I find any information about an E36 330tds. Are you sure it is not a 325tds?

See these pages for model info on the E36.

10.5 lakhs seems pretty high for a car the size of the old Honda City (my guess, from the few E36's I have seen around Bangalore) with ~145 bhp, with 75K on the odo. Try negotiating with the owner - if he really wants to sell, the buyer pool would be very small and it is unlikely he would get a better offer.

I don't know about the tax, sorry.
