Maruti cars will be costlier by ₹30,000: New prices will be implemented from June 2026, the company decided due to increasing input costs.

The country’s largest car manufacturer Maruti Suzuki India has announced an increase in the prices of its passenger vehicles (PV) by up to ₹ 30,000. These new prices increased by the company will be effective from June 2026. The company has taken this decision due to the continuously increasing input costs.

According to Maruti, this price increase will be applicable on all models of the portfolio. However, how much the price of a car will increase will depend on its model and variant. The company has given this information in its stock exchange filing.

Prices of all models of Arena-Nexa will increase

The company sells its vehicles through two different dealership channels, which include Arena and Nexa. From June, cars sold through both these channels will become expensive.

• Arena Models: Under this, there will be a change in the prices of Alto K10, S-Presso, Celerio, WagonR, Eeco, Swift, Dezire, Ertiga, Brezza and Victoris.
• Nexa Models: The prices of Baleno, Front, Grand Vitara, Jimny, XL6, Invicto and the recently launched electric car – E Vitara sold under the premium channel Nexa will also increase.

Company’s efforts to reduce costs fail

• The Brezza manufacturing company said that for the last few months, continuous efforts were being made to reduce the cost impact.
• The company also adopted many cost reduction measures for this, so that the burden does not fall on the customers.
• However, inflationary pressures in the market have reached very high levels and the adverse cost environment continues to persist.

Trying to have minimal impact on customers

The company has clarified in its filing that due to the current economic conditions it was necessary to pass on a part of the increased cost to the market.

Despite this, the company has tried to ensure that this price hike has minimal impact on common customers.

Prices are increasing after more than a year

Maruti Suzuki had last increased the prices of its cars in April 2025. At that time the company had increased the prices of different models by up to ₹ 62,000.

Now after a gap of more than a year, the company has again announced to increase the prices. Meanwhile, many other car companies in the mass-market and luxury segments have increased the prices of their vehicles in January 2026 itself.

Maruti Suzuki India was formed in 1982

Maruti Suzuki was established on 24 February 1981 as Maruti Industries Limited under the ownership of the Government of India. In 1982, the company formed a joint venture ‘Maruti Suzuki India Limited’ with Suzuki Corporation of Japan.

What are regulatory filing and input costs?

• Regulatory Filing: It is mandatory for the companies listed in the stock market to inform SEBI or the stock exchange about any major business decisions, profits, losses or changes in prices. This official document is called regulatory filing.
• Input Cost: The total cost of raw materials (such as steel, plastic, aluminium, rubber and electronics) used in making any car is called input cost. When these things become expensive in the international or domestic market, the manufacturing cost of vehicles also increases.
