This move follows a trend of price increases across the Indian automotive sector, as manufacturers grapple with escalating production costs. In December 2024, Maruti Suzuki, Hyundai Motor India, Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M), and JSW MG Motor all announced price hikes to offset rising input costs.
Maruti Suzuki’s planned April hike follows a previous increase at the start of the year. Meanwhile, M&M and JSW MG Motor implemented price increases of up to 3 per cent from January 2025, with Hyundai also making similar adjustments – increasing prices by up to Rs 25,000.
The latest price revisions are driven by a sharp rise in costs for key raw materials, including aluminium, zinc, and rubber, as earlier reported by Business Standard.
