JSW MG Motor India has officially announced price cuts across its internal combustion SUV range, passing on the full benefit of the GST 2.0 reforms to customers. Effective September 7, 2025, the revised prices apply to the Astor, Hector, and Gloster, with savings ranging from INR 54,000 to INR 3.04 lakh depending on the model and variant.
This move comes ahead of the festive season and is aimed at boosting affordability and buyer sentiment. MG is among the first automakers to fully absorb the revised tax structure and reflect it in retail pricing.
Variant-wise revised pricing
Here’s how the GST benefit translates across MG’s ICE SUV portfolio:
|
Model |
Previous GST + Cess |
New GST Rate |
Max Benefit (INR ) |
|
Astor |
45% |
40% |
INR 54,000 |
|
Hector |
45–50% |
40% |
INR 1,49,000 |
|
Gloster |
50% |
40% |
INR 3,04,000 |
The exact discount varies by variant and fuel type. Diesel variants of the Hector and Gloster see the highest relief, while the Astor gets a modest but meaningful price drop.
More than just a price cut
MG isn’t stopping at tax benefits. The brand is also offering:
- 100% on-road funding
- Three-month EMI holiday
- Flexible finance schemes for festive buyers
What GST 2.0 means for car buyers
The new GST framework simplifies tax slabs for vehicles. Under GST 2.0:
- Small cars and two-wheelers fall under 5% or 18% slabs
- Larger SUVs now attract a flat 40% rate, down from 45–50%
- Compensation cess has been scrapped
This overhaul directly impacts pricing, especially for premium and mid-size SUVs like the Hector and Gloster. MG’s decision to act early gives it a head start over rivals still recalibrating their pricing strategies.
