Planning to buy a Royal Enfield motorcycle soon? Here's revised pricing of complete line-up under GST 2.0
Royal Enfield motorcycles will see a mixed bag of price revisions under the GST 2.0 regime.
Royal Enfield has already joined the bandwagon of automobile manufacturers in India that have announced price reductions under the GST 2.0, which will be effective from September 22. Interestingly, Royal Enfield is one of the few two-wheeler manufacturers that will see a mixed price revision after the implementation of GST 2.0, as under the new tax regime, the motorcycles with engine capacity of above 350 cc will attract higher tax, leading to a higher price than the current regime.
Royal Enfield currently sells a wide range of motorcycles in India across different engine displacement categories. The range of motorcycles from the company starts from 350 cc and ranges up to 650 cc. While the Royal Enfield motorcycles with an engine capacity under 350 cc will see prices being slashed by up to ₹20,000, the bigger motorcycles from the OEM will see an upward price revision ranging up to ₹30,000. The 450 cc motorcycles will be dearer by up to ₹22,000, while the 650 cc engine-powered range of motorcycles from the brand will see a price hike between ₹22,500 and ₹30,000. These updated pricings will be effective from September 22, the same day as GST 2.0 will be enforced across India.
If you are planning to buy a Royal Enfield motorcycle soon, here is a quick and comprehensive look at which model would command how much price revision.
