Maruti Suzuki India has announced a price increase across its passenger vehicle portfolio, which will come into effect from August 2026. According to the company’s latest regulatory filing with BSE, prices will be increased by up to Rs 30,000, although the exact hike will vary depending on the model.
The country’s largest passenger vehicle manufacturer has attributed the latest price revision to a sustained increase in input costs. Maruti Suzuki said it has been taking various cost-reduction measures over the past few months in an attempt to absorb the impact and avoid passing the entire burden on to customers.
Maruti Suzuki Price Hike August 2026
However, with inflationary pressures remaining elevated and the adverse cost environment continuing, Maruti Suzuki says it has now been constrained to pass on a portion of these additional costs to customers. The company has confirmed that the maximum price increase will be Rs 30,000.
However, this does not mean that every Maruti Suzuki car will become costlier by the same amount. The exact quantum of the increase will vary from one model to another. Last time Maruti Suzuki had hiked prices back in June 2026.
Maruti Suzuki currently has one of the widest passenger vehicle portfolios in India, ranging from entry-level hatchbacks to SUVs and MPVs. Its lineup includes models such as Alto K10, S-Presso, Celerio, WagonR, Swift, Dzire, Baleno, Fronx, Brezza, Ertiga, Grand Vitara, Victoris, Jimny and Invicto, among others. The upcoming revision will impact models across the company’s portfolio, although individual model-wise increases have not yet been announced.
New Prices Effective From August
The timing of the announcement is particularly noteworthy, as the revised prices will become effective just ahead of the upcoming festive season. Buyers planning to purchase a Maruti Suzuki vehicle could therefore potentially save some money by completing their purchase before the new prices come into effect, subject to vehicle availability and applicable dealer terms.
The latest announcement comes as automakers continue to face pressure from rising costs across various areas of vehicle manufacturing. While Maruti Suzuki says it has attempted to mitigate these increases through internal cost-reduction measures, the company has stated that the prevailing cost environment has ultimately necessitated passing a portion of the additional burden on to the market.
