The next generation GST reforms announced by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government come into effect today, on September 22, 2025.From today, everyday essentials—from food and household items to cars, TVs, and bikes—become more affordable for the common man and middle class. Many staples, including roti, parantha, paneer, and khakra, now fall under the NIL or 0% GST bracket. Notably, health and life insurance premiums will also be exempt from GST, offering additional relief.A result of the rejig is that automobiles, which were earlier taxed at 28% with additional compensational cess ranging from 1% to 22%, are now placed in either 18% or 40% without any cess.Under the new rates, small cars will be taxed 18% (petrol/LPG/CNG under 1,200 cc and sub-4-metre length; diesel up to 1,500 cc) and 40% for larger or luxury vehicles, replacing the prior 28% plus cess tax bracket.Following the new policy, several major automakers including Tata, Hyundai, Honda, Skoda, Mahindra and Toyota have announced significant price cuts, extending the benefits of the reforms to their customers.Live EventsTata MotorsNexon: Up to Rs 1.55 lakh offSafari: Rs 1.45 lakh offHarrier: Rs 1.40 lakh offPunch: Rs 85,000 offCurvv: Rs 65,000 offTiago: Rs 75,000 offTigor: Rs 80,000 reductionAltroz: Rs 1.10 lakh cutSafari: Rs 1.45 lakh cheaperMahindra and MahindraBolero/Neo: Up to Rs 1.27 lakh offXUV3XO Petrol: Rs 1.40 lakh off; Diesel: Rs 1.56 lakh offThar 2WD: Rs 1.35 lakh off;Thar 4WD: Rs 1.01 lakh offScorpio Classic: Rs 1.01 lakh offScorpio-N: Rs 1.45 lakh offThar Roxx: Rs 1.33 lakh offXUV 700: Rs 1.43 lakh offMaruti SuzukiS-Presso: Rs 1,29,600 off Alto K10: Rs 1,07,600 off Swift: Rs 84,600 off Dzire: Rs 87,700 off Brezza: Rs 1,12,700 off Fronx: Rs 1,12,600 off Grand Vitara: Rs 1,07,000 off Ertiga: Rs 46,400 offToyotaFortuner: Up to Rs 3.49 lakh offLegender: Up to Rs 3.34 lakh offHyryder: Up to Rs 1.1 lakh offHilux: Rs 2.52 lakh cheaperVellfire: Rs 2.78 lakh cutCamry: Rs 1.01 lakh cheaperInnova Crysta: Rs 1.80 lakh cutInnova Hycross: Rs 1.15 lakh reductionOther models: Up to Rs 1.11 lakh offHyundaiVenue: Up to Rs 1,23 lakh offVenue N-Line: Rs 1.19 lakh offCreta: Rs 72,000 offCreta N Line: Rs 71,000 offAlcaraz: Rs 75,000 offTucson: Rs 2.40 offHondaElevate: Up to Rs 58,000 offJSW MG MotorAstor: Up to Rs 54,000 offHector: 1.49 lakh offGloster: Rs 3.04 lakh offKiaSyros: Up to Rs 1.86 lakh offSonet: Rs 1.64 lakh offSeltos: Rs 75,000 offCarens: Rs 48,000Carens Clavis: Rs 78,000 offCarnival: Rs 4.48 lakh reductionSkodaKodiaq: Up to Rs 3.3 lakh offKushaq: Rs 66,000 offAdd as a Reliable and Trusted News Source Add Now!
