Maruti Suzuki India Ltd, the country's largest passenger vehicle maker, on Tuesday announced an increase in prices of its models across its portfolio by up to ₹30,000, the company said in a statement to stock exchanges.
The price hike will take effect from August 2026, with the exact increase varying from model to model.
The company said continuous and sustained increases in input costs had led to the decision. It added that it had spent recent months trying to absorb these costs through internal cost-reduction measures and structural efficiency initiatives.
However, with inflationary pressures remaining elevated and the cost environment continuing to be unfavourable, the company said it was constrained to pass on part of the increased costs to customers, while aiming to keep the impact on them to a minimum.
It noted that there was limited room left to fully absorb rising raw material costs internally despite its cost-mitigation efforts. Maruti Suzuki currently sells vehicles ranging from the entry-level S-Presso to the premium Invicto MPV.
This is not the company's first price increase this year. Maruti Suzuki had earlier raised prices across its lineup by up to ₹30,000 with effect from June 2026, an increase announced on May 21.
The automaker attributed the increase to rising input costs and inflationary pressures linked to commodity price increases following the West Asia conflict. The August revision marks a second portfolio-wide price increase.
The announcement comes after the automaker reported steady sales in recent months. Maruti Suzuki sold 200,390 units in June 2026, including 150,150 units in the domestic market and 42,768 units exported.
In May 2026, the company recorded its highest-ever monthly sales of 242,688 units, driven by domestic wholesales of 193,535 units.
