The mentioned reason for the price cut is lowering of import duty then should other companys follow too? The Laura,Superb,E-class and higher level cars should have subsequent cuts!

The times of india print edition yesterday carried a list of cars which would become cheap and a list of cars which would cost more. Though import duty was lowered, special 4% duty addition is also there. So its a mixed bag
