Maruti Suzuki India has announced a price increase of up to Rs 30,000 across its passenger vehicle portfolio, citing rising input costs and continued inflationary pressures. The revised prices will come into effect from August 2026, according to a regulatory filing by the company. The automaker said the decision was taken to partially offset the impact of higher production expenses while continuing efforts to maintain competitive pricing for customers.

The latest price revision marks the second increase by Maruti Suzuki within a two-month period. The company had previously raised vehicle prices by up to Rs 30,000 in June 2026, as automobile manufacturers continued to face challenges from increasing raw material costs, supply chain expenses and broader inflationary trends. The exact amount of the hike will vary depending on the model and variant.

Maruti Suzuki said it had taken several internal measures to reduce the impact of rising costs, including improving operational efficiency and implementing cost-control initiatives. However, the company stated that the current cost environment has made it difficult to fully absorb the increase in manufacturing expenses. As a result, a portion of the additional burden will be passed on to customers through the revised pricing structure.

In its exchange filing, the company said, “The company has decided to increase the prices of its models across its portfolio by up to Rs 30,000,” while adding that the increase would differ across individual vehicles. Maruti Suzuki emphasised that it would continue working to minimise the impact on buyers while balancing the need to protect margins amid higher production and material costs.

The price hike comes at a time when automobile companies are navigating continued pressure from commodity price fluctuations and rising operational expenses. Despite these challenges, Maruti Suzuki has maintained that it remains focused on delivering value to customers while ensuring sustainable business operations. The company’s wide product range, including small cars, sport utility vehicles and multi-purpose vehicles, will be covered under the latest revision.

Following the announcement, shares of Maruti Suzuki India closed higher in the stock market. The company’s stock ended 0.93% up at Rs 13,640 per share, outperforming the benchmark Nifty 50, which declined 0.21% during the session. Market participants will continue to track how the latest price adjustment affects demand, sales performance and the company’s financial outlook in the coming quarters.
