Mahindra has cited “a combination of cost escalations” as the reason behind this upcoming price hike. Mahindra isn’t the first automaker to state rising cost as the reason for increasing prices of their products. Automakers in India like Audi, Mercedes-Benz, MG Motor, Tata Motors have also implemented price hikes this month for similar reasons. Even the likes of Maruti Suzuki has expressed concerns over rising input costs. Maruti Suzuki also stated that it has been absorbing the price hike till now but is considering passing on the impact to the customers; so we are anticipating that the prices of their cars will witness a price hike in India soon.

Rising demands for SUVs and market trends have bumped up Mahindra significantly in the sales charts in the last 5 to 6 years. Mahindra on the other hand has turned a new leaf with international level products which are gathering global appreciation from critics and masses alike. In the Indian context the recent rise of Mahindra should be a case study in itself. To present a clearer picture, last month Mahindra sold over sixty thousand SUVs in the domestic market.
