If you are planning to buy a Maruti Suzuki car, this month could be the right time to do it. The best-selling automaker has confirmed in a regulatory filling that it will increase prices of its models by up to Rs 30,000 from June 2026 due to rising inflationary pressures and an increasingly adverse cost environment, according to a PTI report. Though the upcoming price revision is confirmed, Maruti Suzuki has not revealed the quantum of increase for models individually so far. It stated that the hike amount will vary depending on the model and variant. This means that both Arena and Nexa models will see different levels of price adjustment from June onwards.
Maruti Dzire, Swift, Brezza and More To Get More Costlier: Here's Why
Maruti Suzuki has referred to mounting cost pressures and higher operational expenses
for the upcoming price hike. The industry is currently impacted by higher transportation expenses and unstable global currency movements, which has resulted in rising costs for imported parts as well as overall vehicle production. Over the past few months, Maruti Suzuki reported that it was working on several internal measures to control costs and reduce the impact of rising expenses. However, as the cost pressure continues to remain high, the company has decided to pass on a part of the extra burden to customers through a price hike.
Note that Maruti Suzuki is not revising prices of its models for the first time in 2026. The company had implemented a smaller hike earlier in the year as well, citing the cost pressures as the reason.
As mentioned, the model-wise breakdown is not announced yet, but as the price hikes of this scale typically span across popular segments. The entry-level hatchbacks such as the Alto K10 and S-Presso may see smaller percentage of rise in their price, while mid-range and premium models, including the Brezza, Grand Vitara, Ertiga, Fronx could absorb the steeper end of the revision.

Planning To Buy A Maruti Car? Here’s Why Timing Matters
Buyers who are planning to buy or upgrade to a Maruti Suzuki car should keep in mind that delaying their purchase beyond this month could mean shelling out more from their pockets than before. A price hike of even Rs 20,000–30,000 can raise the overall on-road cost, affect the down payment status, loan amounts and monthly EMIs. As now the June is around the corner, interested customers are recommended to make the bookings before the hike comes into effect.
