Last week Mahindra updated their Thar booking page with BS6.2 variant names and a hike of 30k for all the RWD variants but after 2 days they removed those BS6.2 names and changed the pricing info back to original figures. The next day they increased the price of LX RWD by 50k still without the 6.2 moniker. Don't know what makes them perform so many changes. I guess they are planning to hike more when launching BS6.2

As per information from dealers, Mahindra has informed them on Jan 12th that introductory prices are over and any new bookings from Jan 13th would be as per prices on delivery date. I don't think Mahindra has delivered even a single unit of RWD AX Opt model so far at 9.99L.

Hi all, posting for a friend looking to buy Slavia 1.0 Ambition A/T. Any insights on what are the running discounts on 2023 models in NCR or anyone managed to get this year? He is being offered 74k discount all inclusive in various forms (reference, card etc). Thanks in advance.

Which dealer is this?

I was offered only 20K (card) on 2023 models and 50K (card + old stock) on 2022 models in January and then lost interest because the 2022 model i wanted was in red colour.

But recently I saw someone getting 91K (card + insurance + ew + smp + exchange bonus) off in NCR on a different forum.
There was a press release by Autocar or similar recently about discounts up to a lakh.
You could push for more I assume.

Maruti Suzuki to hike prices of its models in April 2023

Maruti Suzuki has confirmed that it would announce a price hike across its model range in April 2023.



India’s largest carmaker said in a stock exchange filing that it continues to witness increased cost pressure driven by overall inflation and regulatory requirements. While it makes an effort to reduce costs and partially offset the increase, it has become imperative to pass on some of the impacts through a price increase.

The month of April will also see the rollout of the BS6 Phase-II norms which manage carmakers to equip their vehicles with pollutant detection devices.

Maruti hasn’t announced the quantum of the price hike yet, but that it would vary depending on the model.

Not the 1.0L but someone in my family just got a flat 2 L discount on the top end 1.5 DSG Slavia for a 2022 model in Bangalore last week. Waiting for car allotment to know exact month of manufacture.

Folks, if you are buying a non-RDE compliant car, you MUST ensure it gets registered by 31 March. Post that date, RTOs will not register such vehicles in a scenario identical to the BS-IV to BS-VI regime change.

This isn't true. This time the Government order is only for manufactured vehicles post 1st April to have BS6 Phase 2 emissions compliance. It is not for vehicles being sold or registered.

Is it? Totally my mistake then. Thank you for correcting.

Yes. Please do check the following GO(government order).
No one can overrule a government order other than the government itself. And they cannot change it at the 11th hour either.

So anyone who tells you otherwise is wrong and this GO can be shown to them.
So please make your purchases freely and don't defer them citing OBD2 models.

The economy needs a push right now and whoever needs or wants a vehicle should buy one.

Maruti Suzuki has announced an average hike of around 0.8% it seems.

I could find only pollution and OBD related info. Are the cars manufactured after April 1st also supposed to be E20 compliant? Doesn't make sense to buy E10 model when you can get E20 model for minor price increase considering only E20 petrol will be available now.

Hi Everyone,

Planning to get a Virtus home. Deal I am getting offered is for 1.0 Manual Highline 15.5L on-road Mumbai (15.9L-45k discounts) for 2023 manufacturing. The dealership is offering 90k discount on December 2022 manufacturing, with effective price being around 14.7L.

Are these decent prices or should I get these down further? This is just what I got in 1st visit to the showroom.

Does buying Dec 2022 manufactured car makes sense or should be avoided?

Thanks in advance.

I’d try to push for 1.25 lacs discount on ‘22 model then buy it

Think of the resale value when you get to it, unless planning within next 2-3 years!

Do not know about Vitrus, but two of my friends got 1.5 lakh discount on the topline Slavia 1.0 AT (offer included Cashdown Discount+Regalia credit card+ Inssurance discount )

Both love the car and are very happy with the ownership.
