Automakers in India usually hike the prices of their cars by different quantums every year. Sometimes, the price hike is applied to the entire range of an automaker, while sometimes, select models see the price surge. While some carmakers hike prices once in a year, some announce multiple price hikes throughout the year. It is not clear if Mahindra will hike the price of its entire passenger vehicle range or select models.

Speaking about the decision to increase the price of its cars, Mahindra & Mahindra's CEO (Automotive Division) Nalinikanth Gollagunta said that the move comes based on the inflation and commodity prices outlook. “We intend to take a price increase for our automotive products effective January 2024," he reportedly said. Gollagunta also added that the details of the price hike will be announced closer to the time.
