The new GST 2.0 regime, effective from today, has reduced the Goods and Services Tax on two-wheelers of 350cc and below from 28% to 18%. This change has brought noticeable price cuts across brands, especially in popular commuter bikes and scooters. Manufacturers are passing on benefits in full for the most part, making several models more affordable—both in upfront cost and long-term running. Here’s a brand-wise breakdown of how much buyers now save.
