Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL), the country’s leading automobile manufacturer, announced today that it will implement a price increase across its product lineup effective April 8, 2025. The company cited rising input costs, growing operational expenses, regulatory changes, and feature additions as the primary reasons behind this decision.
In an official communication to the National Stock Exchange of India and BSE Limited, Sanjeev Grover, Executive Officer and Company Secretary of MSIL, stated that while the company remains committed to optimizing costs and minimizing the impact on customers, it is “constrained to pass on some of the increased expenses to the market.”
The price hike will affect several popular models in the Maruti Suzuki portfolio, with the premium SUV Grand Vitara seeing the most significant increase of up to Rs 62,000. The company’s commercial vehicle Eeco will see prices rise by up to Rs 22,500, while the popular hatchback Wagon-R will experience an increase of up to Rs 14,000.
Other models affected include the Ertiga and XL6 (up to Rs 12,500 each), Dzire Tour S (up to Rs 3,000), and the compact SUV Fronx (up to Rs 2,500).
This price adjustment comes amid growing challenges in the automotive sector, including rising raw material costs and the implementation of stricter emission norms that have required manufacturers to invest in updated technology.
Industry analysts suggest that other automobile manufacturers might follow suit in the coming weeks as the sector continues to grapple with inflationary pressures and regulatory compliance costs.
Maruti Suzuki customers planning to purchase vehicles in the near future are advised to check with local dealerships for the final pricing structure after April 8.
