Navratri begins today, September 22, and with it, the new GST rates have also come into effect across the country.
This means that the prices of cars and motorcycles have dropped from today.
Many companies had already announced price cuts, and now they are officially applicable.
From the first day of Navratri, Hero’s popular motorcycles – Glamour X and Passion Plus – have also become cheaper.
This is a great opportunity for buyers, as these motorcycles are now available at reduced prices.
Hero Glamour X – Price Cut Details
The Hero Glamour X was launched recently and is packed with features, including cruise control, which is quite impressive in this price range.
It also has a 125cc engine that offers good performance.
With the GST changes, Hero has reduced the price of the Glamour X by ₹7,813.
Buyers can now purchase it at this reduced price starting today, September 22.
Hero Passion Plus – Now More Affordable
The Hero Passion Plus is very popular in both rural and urban areas.
It is known for its great mileage, easy handling, and reliable performance.
After the GST revision, Hero has cut its price by ₹6,500.
This reduction is effective from today, making the motorcycle much more affordable for customers.
Why Are Prices Dropping?
The central government had earlier announced a reduction in GST on vehicles.
According to the new rule, motorcycles with an engine capacity of up to 350cc will now attract 18% GST, instead of the previous 28% GST + 1% cess.
Since both the Glamour X and Passion Plus fall under this category, their prices have gone down, giving buyers significant savings.
