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.
