Tata Motors to Hike Car Prices by Rs 25,000; Joins Maruti, Hyundai as Costs Hurt Pockets

The automaker said the increase will vary by model and variant as it passes on part of rising input and commodity costs.

  • On Friday, August 21, 2026, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles announced price hikes of up to ₹25,000 for cars and SUVs, effective September 1, with increases varying by model and variant.
  • Rising input and commodity costs prompted the decision, as TMPV navigates persistent inflationary pressures and geopolitical uncertainty linked to the Iran war affecting global supply chains.
  • This marks TMPV's third price increase this year, following a 0.5% raise on April 1 and a 1.5% increase across its portfolio from July 1.
  • Rival manufacturers are also adjusting pricing: Maruti Suzuki India Limited announced a hike of up to ₹30,000 last month, while Hyundai Motor India confirmed a 1% increase from September.
  • Tata Motors stated it continues to optimize costs to minimize customer impact, though the company must pass on a portion of the burden from sustained inflationary pressures.
