GST Car Discounts - Heavy Price Cut on Popular Brands in India
GST has once again created a storm in the Indian automobile market. The show may not be as fascinating as BS3-BS4 discounts but still, those who missed that chance could enjoy a drop in prices and buy their dream vehicles in next 15 days.
Implementation of GST will bring a change in price of almost all products related to automotive industry. Cars, to be more specific, will get a more noticeable change as compared to motorcycles in our country. The breakup of taxes indicated minimal change in the pricing of small cars while SUVs and luxury cars saw a drop in overall tax rates.
The current discounts on offer are of two types. First is the one given by all major brands namely Hyundai, Maruti, Honda, Mahindra and others of the same segment. This includes drop in prices because they wish to clear the stock before a change in taxation comes and they have to recalculate everything that's left on their side.
As chances of drop in sales for the first month after GST are high, they will wish to sell more in June 2017 itself. Second type of price drop is seen for Mercedes, Audi, BMW and other luxury car manufacturers as they have given the prices that will continue from 1st July, 2017.
