MG Motor India has announced a price reduction on its lineup of ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) vehicles, effective for all bookings made on or after September 7, 2025. The company stated that it is passing on the full benefit of the government’s new GST 2.0 policy to its customers.
Significant Savings for Customers
The price changes impact MG’s three SUV models in India: the Astor, Hector, and Gloster. The Astor, which was previously taxed at 45%, is now in the 40% tax category, resulting in a price cut of up to Rs 54,000.
The Hector model will see a price reduction of up to Rs 1.49 lakh, as both its petrol and diesel variants have been moved from the 45% and 50% categories, respectively, into the new 40% tax slab. The flagship Gloster SUV has the largest price drop, with a cut of up to Rs 3.04 lakh. This is due to the government’s decision to abolish the 50% tax slab on luxury goods, capping the maximum tax at 40%.

Industry Response and Broader Impact
Vinay Raina, Chief Commercial Officer at JSW MG Motor India, commented that the government’s move is a positive step that addresses affordability and improves consumer confidence. He added that the company is focused on making its SUVs more accessible and attractive, especially with the upcoming festive season.
The price of MG’s electric vehicles, including the Comet and Windsor, remains unchanged, as they continue to be taxed at 5%. Other automakers, such as Hyundai, Toyota, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi, have also announced similar price cuts in response to the new tax policy.
