BSA Motorcycles has introduced a festive Navratri offer on its Gold Star 650 for the first 500 customers by allowing them to acquire it at the pre-GST 2.0 prices. With the GST hike pushing taxes on motorcycles
above 350cc from 28% to 40%, prices were expected to rise. But BSA has decided to absorb this increase for these select customers, and will sell at ex-showroom prices, varying from Rs 3.09 lakh to Rs 3.44 lakh (ex-showroom), based on the colour option opted for. Hence, it is one of the very few premium motorcycles to have kept its pricing constant with no major increase during the festive season.
