The recent GST 2.0 revision has had a direct impact on the automobile industry in India. Car makers have passed on the tax benefits to customers, making popular cars more affordable. This move is expected to boost sales in the coming festive season when demand for passenger vehicles usually rises.
For buyers, this means better savings and easier access to hatchbacks, sedans, and SUVs. Among all the vehicles, the Swift has drawn the most attention because of its sharp reduction in price.
The Swift is among the most popular hatchbacks in India. With this latest cut, the car becomes cheaper by ₹1 lakh across variants.
