Buying a new Maruti Suzuki car is set to become more expensive. The company has announced a price hike of up to ₹30,000 across its vehicle lineup. The revised prices will come into effect from August 2026.
Maruti Suzuki said the decision has been taken due to the continued rise in raw material and other input costs. The exact increase will depend on the model and variant.
Why Are Prices Going Up?
According to the company, it has been trying to absorb rising costs by taking several cost-cutting measures over the past few months.
However, increasing expenses on raw materials, logistics, and overall operations have made it difficult to avoid a price hike.
Maruti Suzuki said it has kept the increase as low as possible, but some of the additional costs now have to be passed on to customers.
Not the First Price Hike This Year
This is not the first time Maruti Suzuki has increased vehicle prices in 2026. The company had earlier indicated that rising commodity prices and higher operating costs were putting pressure on its business.
Even after efforts to reduce expenses, the cost of manufacturing vehicles has continued to rise, leading to another price revision.
Maruti Shares Move Higher
The announcement also had a positive impact on the stock market. Maruti Suzuki shares gained ₹122.55 during Tuesday’s trading session on the BSE, with the stock reaching ₹13,630 by midday.
The company has confirmed that the price hike will vary across different models and variants, with the maximum increase going up to ₹30,000.
