Maruti price increase from August! How much more will you pay

Planning to buy a new Maruti Suzuki next month? You may need to increase your budget a bit more. India’s largest carmaker has announced yet another price revision across its model range, with prices increasing by up to Rs 30,000 from August 2026. The latest revision comes just weeks after the company raised prices in June, making it the second hike in three months. In a Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) regulatory filing, Maruti Suzuki said the decision was prompted by persistent inflationary pressure and an unfavorable cost environment. The company said it absorbed some of the higher costs, but now has to pass some of the increase on to customers. “The company is forced to pass on some of the increased costs to the market while continuing to ensure that the impact on customers is kept to a minimum,” the company said in its filing. The price increase will vary depending on the model and variant. However, Maruti Suzuki is yet to release a breakdown of the revised model-wise prices. As a result, the actual increase for individual vehicles will vary across the company’s portfolio. For potential buyers, the timing of the purchase could be of great importance. Customers who complete their reservations before the revised prices take effect may still be eligible for the current price, subject to dealership terms and conditions and vehicle delivery schedule. Automakers across the industry have faced rising input costs and inflationary pressures in recent months, prompting several manufacturers to revise vehicle prices.
