"
Swift Petrol LDI comes for 4.20 Lakh and i10Kappa base model for 4 Lakh (Chandigarh Ex SR Price) and on that dealer are giving 15-18k corporate discount on them.

My point here is if A-Star is to be priced for 3.85 - 4.75 Lakhs, it wont sell well as both i10 and swift have more space and bigger engines then the A-Star has got.

If A-Star has to be a hit, it sould be be priced above 3.50 lakhs (Base model).
