Maruti Suzuki and Rising Inflation
Rising inflation is becoming a major concern for people across the country. Prices of essential items like milk, vegetables, petrol, diesel, and CNG are already increasing, and now the news of costlier cars has added more pressure on buyers. Maruti Suzuki has said that input costs have been rising continuously over the past few months. The company claimed it tried several ways to control expenses so customers would not face additional burden, but the situation has now become difficult.
Rising Production Costs
Due to high inflation and increasing production costs, the carmaker says it has no option but to revise prices. However, the company also mentioned that it is trying to keep the price hike as low as possible to reduce the impact on customers. Still, a part of the increased production cost will now be passed on to buyers, making new cars more expensive from next month.
Announcement By Maruti Suzuki
Maruti Suzuki has currently announced that prices across its entire product portfolio will increase by up to Rs 30,000. However, the exact price hike will vary depending on the model and variant.
