Planning to buy a new Maruti Suzuki next month? You may need to adjust your budget a little more. India’s largest carmaker has announced another price hike across its model range, with prices set to go 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 increase in three months. In a regulatory filing with the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), Maruti Suzuki said the decision was driven by persistent inflationary pressure and an unfavorable cost environment. The company said it absorbed a portion of the higher costs, but now must pass a portion of the increase on to customers. “The company is forced to pass on a portion of the additional cost to the market, while continuing to ensure that the impact on customers is kept to the smallest possible extent,” the company said in its filing. The price increase varies depending on the model and variant. However, Maruti Suzuki is yet to release a model-wise breakdown of the revised prices. As a result, actual increases in individual vehicles will vary across the company’s portfolio. For prospective buyers, the time of purchase may vary. Customers who completed their reservations before the revised prices will still be valid for the current price, subject to the terms and conditions of the dealership as well as the vehicle delivery schedule. Automakers across the industry have faced rising input costs and inflationary pressures in recent months, prompting many manufacturers to revise vehicle prices.
