Tata Motors announces hike in passenger vehicles price

The company said that the reason for this sudden rise in the price of vehicles is due to the higher input costs.

On Saturday, July 9, auto major Tata Motors announced a price hike for its passenger vehicles. Starting today the cost of the average vehicle across all variants is increased by 0.55%.

The company said that the reason for this sudden rise in the price of vehicles is due to the higher input costs. “The company has taken extensive measures to absorb a significant portion of the increased input costs. However, to offset the residual impact of the accumulated increase in input costs, it is passing on a minimized price hike,” said Tata Motors in a statement.
