Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd on Friday said it will hike prices of its internal combustion engine (ICE) passenger vehicles from April 1, 2026, citing rising input costs.

The company sells a range of ICE vehicles from the hatchback Tiago to the Safari SUV priced between Rs 4.57 lakh and Rs 23.42 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).

Mercedes-Benz India is considering hiking prices of its products every quarter in the next calendar year to offset the adverse impact of rupee depreciation against the euro, its Managing Director and CEO Santosh Iyer said on Tuesday.

He said about 18 months back, the exchange value was Rs 89 to a euro and now it's around Rs 104-105. "That is more than 15-18 per cent of depreciation," he noted.
