Maruti Suzuki’s Price Hike Announcement ๐
Maruti Suzuki India Limited, the top car manufacturer in India, has announced a price increase of 4% on its vehicles starting from April 2025. This is the third time in just three months that the company has raised prices. The first increase was in January 2025, where prices went up by 4%, leading to an increase of Rs 1,500 to Rs 32,500 on various models. Following that, another price hike of 4% occurred on February 1, 2025.
Why Are Prices Going Up? ๐
The company stated that the main reason for this price hike is the increased cost of raw materials and operational expenses. This trend is not just limited to Maruti Suzuki; other major car manufacturers like Tata Motors, Mahindra, Hyundai, Kia, Skoda, MG Motor, Jeep, Citroen, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi have also announced similar price increases this year. Most of these companies have raised their prices between 2% and 4% since January 2025.
The Bigger Picture ๐
Automakers attribute these price increases to rising global raw material costs, high import duties, and supply chain challenges. Additionally, the Indian automobile industry is expected to grow due to the launch of new models and increasing consumer demand.
